Pro 6:16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
Pro 6:17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
Pro 6:18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
Pro 6:19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren
*******
The LORD hates a false witness that speaks lies.
We already discussed how much God hate lying and here again is the lying aspect brought up, why? Maybe because it's so awful!
Try not to lie at all whatsoever. Seriously, try it! Every single little tiny white lie, try not to do it. Maybe you're different from me and you won't have an issue with any of it. Just the other day a situation came up and to "protect" someone I wanted to lie. Yet in the end coming clean and NOT living a lie even by omission, was the best course of action even when the coming clean did upset the one I wanted to protect.
The LORD hates a false witness and we know to be a false witness you have to lie.
A witness is one who is called to testify to something, right?
'A witness is someone who has, who claims to have, or is thought, by someone with authority to compel testimony, to have knowledge relevant to an event or other matter of interest.'

You expect TRUTH from a witness. You WANT truth from a witness. You never want a witness to lie unless you are corrupt yourself.
Truth or lies, so much comes down to these two things. Those two things are good or evil, God or Satan. But people do NOT want to look at it like that, they'd rather stay stuck on the truth or lie part so it doesn't hit the reality of things. The reality of eternal life.
Eternal life is REALITY.
Eternal life is NOT guaranteed to all.
Sinners, willful sinners, unrepentant willful sinners will not have eternal life. They won't have eternal life in a fiery inferno or some other screwed up form of forever torture, they simply will no longer exist. And because we do exist, it's hard for us to truly comprehend no longer existing, as it should be. We know that we die, we see people dying, we have many relatives that have died before us, we know they cease to exist in our lives. Only some people, a lot of people, maybe even most people believe the dead are still alive somewhere, though it's untrue. The dead are sleeping and they will be awakened when Christ returns, some to everlasting life, the others not.
Truth or lies.
The LORD hates lies of any and all sorts.
The LORD hates lies because they are of Satan and the LORD wants us all to love truth, to love righteousness, to love good, to love forgiveness, to love their Creator, their Redeemer.
Liars are not of God.
Liars have no part of God.
Forgive us, Father, forgive us for our ease of lying, of not realizing just how awful a lie is. Please keep us from lying as You keep us from evil, all evil.
Let us live in YOU and YOU in us!
All by YOUR love and grace, YOUR mercy and truth, YOUR righteousness!
