ONE Aspect of Lying

ONE

“The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.”
–Proverbs 12:19

One aspect of lying (which MOST liars do NOT think much about) is that BECAUSE the liar tells lies, he knows the difference between the TRUTH and LYING.

He does NOT.

Because the liar tells lies, he imagines that he KNOWS the difference between his lies and the truth.

The liar does NOT.

The liar may ONLY know the difference between the lies he has told others (which he knows to be lies) AND the lies he has told himself (which he does not know and which he MAY mistakenly believe to be the TRUTH).

That which the liar has been told may also be a LIE.  The liar has NO way of knowing the TRUTH from lies. The liar may tell a lie about some part of this information, BUT he may only be lying about one part of another lie.  He has no way to knowing.

The liar may imagine that the lies he tells others and the lies he tells himself are somehow different.

They are NOT.

BOTH of them are lies and are NOT to be believed.

The liar may fancy that he can tell the TRUTH from lies because he lies so much.

The liar CANNOT even tell the TRUTH between the lies he has told others and what else he knows (which are probably lies).

This is only ONE aspect of lying which should cause sleepless nights for the liar.

The liar is a POOR judge of the truth.

DOES the reader imagine that he is able to CONSISTENTLY distinguish the TRUTH from lies?

It is not YET too late–although time is surely running out: there is still a LITTLE time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
