Subject: Is it always a sin to lie? |
Bible Note: Greetings Tim, Your post is seriously getting off the topic.. I am not "losing my cool" in this thread - I am simply stating what is painfully obvious.. Has anyone ever considered that perhaps it was in the plan for Moses to be "hid" from Pharaoh, much like Jesus was hid from Herod, so that God could accomplish His purpose? What I see here is a blatant refusal to acknowledge the fact that: Lying and deception did happen, but something good came as a result of it. If this truly is your last post on the subject, and if this post does not serve to convince you of my point of view, then perhaps we will just have to disagree. Your brother in Christ, Makarios |
