Our pastor claims it’s always wrong to lie. Is this true? What about during war?
It’s one of the 10 Commandments: “thou shalt not bear false witness” (Ex. 20:16). In the New Testament, Jesus claimed to BE the truth (Jn. 14:6). Yes, it’s always wrong to lie, because God’s nature is truth, and lying is acting contradictory to His nature.
It’s always wrong to lie; it’s never wrong to tell the truth and trust God to work it out.
