When God says...
“A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who speaks lies shall perish.” (Proverbs 19:9 NKJV)
Again, He seriously reminds of the 8th commandment -"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." (Exodus 20:16).
God cannot allow lie in His house. He is God of truth. Through the psalmist, He warns: "He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house; he who tells lies cannot continue in my presence (Psalm 101:7)." Yes, life of lies and falsehoods, lead to a perishing end, as it is written: "…All liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8b ESV)
Hence, as members in the body of Christ, by grace through faith in Jesus, Apostle Paul exhorts us with these words: "So stop telling lies. Let us tell our neighbors the truth, for we are all parts of the same body.” (Ephesians 4:25 NLT)
And I say, AMEN!
