Liar, Liar

Psalm 5:9 “For there is no faithfulness in their mouth . . . their throat is an open sepulchre. . . .”

Matthew 2:1-8 “Then Herod . . . said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.” (Yea, right!)

Psalm 55:21 “The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.”

Romans 3:10-13 “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one. . . . Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips. . . .”

Psalm 5:4-6 “For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity. Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing [lying]: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.”

119:118 “Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.”

(For example: “0-grams trans-fat,” an official deceit, that allows manufacturers to legally cause the public to believe a lie: that the product contains no trans-fats!)

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

v. 20 “Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellers of peace is joy.”

v. 22 “Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.”

14:15 “The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.”

19:22 “The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.”

[It’s better to be poor and honest, than rich and a liar.]

20:17 “Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.”

Zephaniah 3:13 “. . . Israel shall not . . . speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth. . . .”

Jeremiah 9:3-5 “ And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth. . . . . . . every neighbour will walk with slanders. And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.”

James 3:6 “And the tongue . . . defileth the whole body, and . . . is set on fire of hell.”

(The tongue is the tool, but the heart is the problem!)

Mark 7:1-23 “That which cometh out of the man, . . . from within, out of the heart of men, proceed . . . deceit. . . .”

Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?”

Psalm 101:4-7 “A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person. Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off. . . . He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.”

116:11 “I said in my haste, All men are liars.”

Romans 3:4 “. . . let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written. . . .”

120:2-3 “Deliver my soul, O Lord, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue. What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?” (A question!)

Revelation21:8 “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

22:18 “If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book. . . .”

(If this were the only reason against adding unto the Lord’s words, would you need more reason?)

Proverbs 30:6 “Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”

FALSE WITNESS

Exodus 20:16 “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.”

(also:) Deuteronomy 5:20 “Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.”

[Bearing false witness is just a certain kind of lying. A lie is an intentional attack upon the truth, but bearing false witness is an intentional attack upon a person by use of a lie. This is done all the time, even in official capacities:

Cops do it to get a conviction against someone they think is guilty, or want to be found guilty (even though perjury, and false statement in support of probable cause, are themselves more serious crimes than the one they’re usually trying to get the defendant convicted of (speeding, no seat belt, resisting arrest, etc.).

IRS agents have a mandate under the law to “maximize” the amount of money they can extract from the citizens (additionally they get a bonus based on how much the take in), and so they are pressured to use any means necessary to get the maximum amount possible. As was said at Nuremberg, “I was just following orders.”

Deuteronomy 19:16-21 “If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong. . . .”

Proverbs 6:16-19 “These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, an heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

OBSERVATIONS:

(1) All of the things in this list involve people or what they do.

(2) Two of the items in this list are really the same thing repeated, using different words.

(3) Only two of the things hated in this list are the people themselves (not just certain of their body parts)! This is the only occasion in the bible (besides Romans 9:13) where the Lord states that he hates a man.

12:17 “He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.”

14:5 “A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.”

19:5 “A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.”

v. 9 “A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.”

Matthew 19:16-18 “He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness. . . .”

15:16-20 (19) “For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness. . . .”

26:55-63 (59) “Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death. . . . And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.”

Acts 6:8-14 “And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law: For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place. . . .”

Psalm 27:12-14 “Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.” (Amen!)

Examples of Lying:

Acts 5:1-11 “But Peter said, Ananias . . . why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.”

1st John 4:20 “If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?”

Colossians 2:8 “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men. . . .”

[Such exactly has become the official business of modern godless America; teaching “Evolution,” “Easter,” “Easter bunnies,” “Christmas,” “Santa Clause,” the tooth fairy, etc. For example:

The sign out in front of the public grade school says, “Santa pictures this Thursday”. Consider how that the government run school system, which is officially indoctrinating defenseless children already with the bald-faced lie of evolution for the sake of science, under the theory that “It’s the best theory we have.”(even though it is taught as if it were a fact); has summarily removed from the children their Constitutional right to even possess a bible on the grounds of protecting non-existent rights of atheists from having to hear or see the truth; and is yet simultaneously perpetuating “Christmas and Santa Claus” (“vain deceit, after the tradition of men”), known to be a lie by everyone involved with it (EXCEPT THE CHILDREN IT’S BEING TAUGHT TO), under the excuse of “community involvement,” as though teaching cheap and corrupt Catholic gleanings from pagan tradition was a viable substitute for “THE TRUTH” which is now officially banned at every level within American institutions of “learning.” Obviously, where the truth is despised, lies will be loved, and America is a perfect example.

All across America, on December 24 P.M., Mommies and Daddies are explaining to their precious children (that they love Sooo Much) how that “The reason we’re leaving milk and cookies out in the living room tonight is because after “Saint Nick” slides down the chimney, and leaves his toys, he’ll be thirsty and a little hungry, so. . . .” [Tell me, Dad, now that you delivered this cold blooded lie to your son, along with some other lying garbage about Easter and the tooth fairy; do you really think that someday your son is going to believe the gospel from your lying lips; that is, supposing that you should ever come to the knowledge of the gospel yourself?] (Oh, Tom, it’s for the kids: its just for fun!) [For the kids, is it? Hardly. It’s for Satan!]

(A) The Lord:

Isaiah 53:9 “. . . neither was any deceit in his mouth. . . .”

Hebrews 6:18 “. . . by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie. . . .”

(Here we have two words, “impossible” and “God”, in the SAME sentence.)

[This is not the same thing as, “God will not cause you to believe a lie.”]

(2nd Thessalonians 2:8-13 “with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.. . . God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”)

QUESTION: What kind of people does God cause to “believe a lie”?

(Example: Proverbs 17:4 “A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.”)

ANSWER: Liars!

1st Peter 2:21-22 “. . . Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth.”

(B) Satan: John 8:44 “When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

[You can’t serve both the Lord and Satan. You can’t “serve two masters” (Matthew 6:24).

1st Corinthians 10:19-21 “But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.” [That is, you can’t live in two worlds. Satan’s sacrifices (for example: “the mass”) are “gentile.” False religion is not acceptable with God, while Satan, on the other hand, has nothing against “religion”: it is the truth that he hates. Satan is the author of “religion.” Satan is, before all else, in the religious business, and whereas he has no “respect” for the truth, WE should have no respect for religion. (Deceived and reprobate men say, “We should respect each other’s religions.”, and they really mean it! They hope those who know the truth won’t expose them by witnessing the truth!)]

(Deuteronomy 33:27-29 “The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms . . . and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.”)

Advice:

2nd Corinthians 4:1-2 “Therefore . . . we have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness. . . .”

(John 1:45-51 “Jesus . . . saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!”)

1st Peter 2:1-2 “Wherefore laying aside . . . all guile, and . . . all evil speakings, as newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby. . . .”

3:10-12 “ . . . let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile. . . .”

Mark 14:56 “For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.”

1st Timothy 1:8-11 “. . . the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine. . . .”
