Subject: Do any false pretenses allow allumnet? |
Bible Note: Searcher, I would say that the intentional ommission of significant fact that is otherwise taken for granted is not much different than a direct lie. The difference between a sin of ommission and a sin of commission. When one swears in court to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, do they lie when they leave out a significant piece of testimony that gives a misleading or false impression and by ommission bearing false witness? When our testimony can aquit the innocent or convict the guilty and we are silent is that sin? Emmaus |
