1 | Lying justified? | Josh 2:5 | BradK | 225075 | ||
Hello MJH, Am I understanding your words correctly, "Rahab was considered righteous because she lied." ? This would amount to gross speculation! Scripture says in Heb. 11:31, "By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish along with those who were disobedient, after she had welcomed the spies in peace." It is her faith that justified her, not her lie! Her lie is nowhere even mentioned! Nothing from scripture could support such a notion! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

2 | Lying justified? | Josh 2:5 | MJH | 225076 | ||
Brad, You are correct. I forget sometimes that specific wording is very important. Rahab, like everyone, is justified by Grace through Faith. It was her faith that caused her actions to produce the result which protected the spies. Hebrews specifically words it as you state, faith produced action. MJH |
