    Paul talks about how the Christian is supposed to live in society. Not only does he say that we should obey the laws of the land – but obey even when those laws don’t make sense. And he reveals principals for getting along in the world.

    A lie is something false said with the intention to deceive. When we lie, we are speaking Satan’s native language. It’s music to his ears. Speak the truth in Love. Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit.

    A LYING TONGUE “The truthful lip shall be established forever, but a lying tongue is but for a moment.” (Proverbs 12:19) The tongue is one of the smallest organs of the body; a world of evil among the parts of the body, ...read more
