Every Christian is aware that lying is wrong, yet most of us tell some sort of lie on a daily basis. Lying is a temptation we all struggle with, because sometimes a small white lie can feel like it makes our lives a bit easier. We might even thin that lying our way out of a situation to avoid the truth is better in the long run. Rarely, though, do any of the lies we tell have positive results. They can often lead to mistrust, betrayal, and an endless cycle of more lies.

God never intended for us to live this way. God saw the dangers of lying and how it could hurt both the liar and the person being lied too. So, God put important messages in the Bible to warn us about lying and encouraged us to live a life of honor, truth, and trustworthiness. Here is what the Bible has to say.

God instructs us not to lie.

It is abundantly clear in the Bible that lies are a sin against God. Even in the 10 Commandments we are told to not lie (Exodos 20:16). Proverbs 6:16-19 reiterates this, saying 'For there are six things the Lord hates—no, seven: haughtiness, lying, murdering, plotting evil, eagerness to do wrong, a false witness, sowing discord among brothers.' Lying can turn us into wicked men, because we are not signaling our true intentions to our friends (Proverbs 6:12-13). Furthermore, God believes those who lie hate their victims (Proverbs 26:28).

Lying was a recognized sin right from the beginning of time. This was made evident in the condemnation of the serpent's lie in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3) and God's judgment upon him. When Abraham lied about Sarah being his sister instead of his wife, he almost lost her as a result. Instead, God intervened and rescued them from this situation, though it was clearly seen as wrong (Genesis 12:18-20).

Results indicate that instrumental liars were young with low theory of mind (ToM) scores and had high social skills. Polite liars were the oldest, had high ToM, and had similar levels of social skills as instrumental liars. Truth-tellers and dual liars had lower social skills and moderate ToM in comparison to the instrumental and polite liars. Gtslots.com. The occasional liars are not perfect, but are usually respected for their strong attempt at being a truthful person, and humble enough to admit their mistakes.

God says there will be consequences for lying.

God was clear that those that lie will be caught and punished (Proverbs 19:9). He reiterates this in Luke 8:17 which says, 'For all that is secret will eventually be brought into the open, and everything that is concealed will be brought to light and made known to all.' Though we might think we are only saying a small, innocent lie, our actions will be considered sinful.

Some people lie without any fear of retaliation, and even make money from it. In Proverbs 21:6 and 8 God says, 'A fortune made by people who tell lies amounts to nothing and leads to death…But the conduct of those who are not guilty is honest.' Those who use misleading tactics to gain power and money will be in trouble. God will not deal with those people gently. In Psalm 12:2-6 it says, 'Everyone deceives and flatters and lies. There is no sincerity left. But the Lord will not deal gently with people who act like that; He will destroy those proud liars who say, ‘We will lie to our heart's content. Our lips are our own; who can stop us?' The Lord replies, ‘I will arise and defend the oppressed, the poor, the needy. I will rescue them as they have longed for me to do.' The Lord's promise is sure. He speaks no careless word; all He says is purest truth, like silver seven times refined.' God will find those who are honest and true and save them from the liars and manipulators of the world.

Satan is the father of lies.

Lying is not only a sin from God but is a direct act of the devil. John 8:44 says, 'For you are the children of your father the devil and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning and a hater of truth — there is not an iota of truth in him. When he lies, it is perfectly normal; for he is the father of liars.' Lying is the work of the devil, and he will encourage us and tempt us to spit out false truths to tear us away from our Creator. We must put defenses up so that we cannot hear the whispers of Satan in our ear, and that starts with dedicating our lives to the truth.

God will help us to stop lying.

When Satan has taken ahold of our minds, we might find ourselves lying with ease and pleasure. With God's help we can end this line of thinking. Philippians 4:13 says 'For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.' The Lord can give you the guidance to start telling the truth, even when it is hard. When we are feeling overwhelmed with temptation, we can take comfort in 1 Corinthians 10:13 that says, 'No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.' God will take our weakness and turn it into power, and work through you so that you can overcome the sins you have committed (2 Corinthians 10:13).

God will forgive you for lying.

It is never too late to ask God for forgives for the sins you have committed. 1 John 1:9 says, 'If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness'. God never lied in the Bible; He only wrote down the truth. So, we can trust Him to fully accept us, even as sinners, and give us the gift of redemption (1 Timothy 1:15). To really be forgiven, we must come to God with an open heart that has guilt for the sins we committed. God can see inside our hearts and knows when we are not full of repentance.

Lying, both big and small, is a sin before God. He calls for us to turn to Him for forgiveness, speak the truth, and walk in His truth. Only then can we fully live our lives out for Him and give glory to God in Heaven.

Lying involves willfully generating information that is counter to the actual truth in an attempt to deceive another person

Why can't a cheating spouse tell you the truth?

  • It's an Exit Affair–. Some cheaters are too concerned/stressed/guilty to end a committed relationship or ask for a divorce – for a variety of reasons. So they have an affair in order to force the issue and bring things to a close. You may never get the truth as they have years of emotions and resentment to work through, before they can admit – that they have been unhappy for along time (and perhaps never wanted to get married in the first place.)
  • Embarrassment – the cheater may be too embarrassed at having been discovered to talk about the affair.
  • Guilt – the cheater may be so consumed with guilt that he can't bring himself to discuss the affair.
  • Fear of Your Reaction – the cheater may be afraid that you will rant and rave, throw things, or become violent. He may be afraid that if he admits to having the affair you will leave or put him out.
  • Concern for Your Feelings – the cheater may be filled with remorse for having hurt you, and afraid that revealing additional facts about the affair will cause you more pain.
  • Inability to Express Himself – the cheater may not know how to verbalize his behavior, how to put his thoughts into words, or how to tactfully describe what he has done. He may not even know why he had the affair.
  • Fear You Won't Forgive Him – the cheater may feel that his behavior was so despicable that you'll never be able to forgive him for what he did. He may feel that discussing the matter is a lost cause.
  • Fear that You'll Use What He Says Against Him – the cheater may be afraid that you'll use what he says against in a court of law, bring it up in every other conversation from now on, or use it to manipulate him in some way.
  • Assuming Talking Won't Help – the cheater may feel that he's already a condemned man — that you've already made up your mind to leave him, and that there's nothing he can say to make you change your mind.

What is a lie?

Everyone tells little lies every now and then. You could call these lies 'little white lies' and term the individual an Occasional Liar.

People who tell white lies don't usually think of themselves as true 'liars'. They justify their white lies as harmless, or even beneficial, in the long term. They will sometimes tell only part of the truth, and not be suspected of lying at all. White liars may use their lies to to shield someone from what they believe is a hurtful or damaging truth.

Occasional liars are those who seldom tell a lie. When they do, they are so blown away by what they said their guilt overcomes them. These individuals are quick to ask for forgiveness. Occasional liars might not be perfect, but they are often respected for their attempts at being truthful and humble enough to admit when they are wrong.

  • Self-deceptive people can appear to believe they are telling the truth, however without clarity beyond egocentric behavior, they are unable to tell the truth consistently and are untrustworthy.
So why is it so hurtful and harmful to lie about cheating and infidelity?
The simple answer is because the lying impacts the emotional connection or bond between the couple.
Lying also impacts the ability to accurately store and retrieve memories. In many affair types, the cheating spouse will create 'false memories,' to help ease the guilt and shame around cheating on their spouse.

Occasional Liars

[box] A false memory is a fabricated or distorted recollection of an event that did not actually happen. People often think of memory as something like a video recorder, accurately documenting and storing everything that happens with perfect accuracy and clarity. In reality, memory is very prone to fallacy.[/box]
Research has demonstrated that lying about an event interferes with one's later recall of that event. After an individual has lied they are unable to accurately recall the concealed truth. When we lie to ourselves, we actually start to believe the lie, and soon it is difficult to recall the actual truth from the lie.
In affair recovery, this inability to recall what was previously talked about can prove to be a painful experience for the betrayed spouse, who obsesses over the affair details continuously. Therefore it is important to work with a qualified 3rd party, to discuss the affair story in the detail level needed for all people to be able to move forward.

Lying also can indicate personality traits that can have terrible effects on the spouse, and other family members. Controlling Behavior runs the gamut in wounded personalities of people that have low self-esteem, fear based thoughts. When these fears are left unchecked, this need to control others may progress into narcissistic and Psychopathic behaviors. One important point to understand about controlling behavior is that it will always lead to some form of psychological or Emotional Manipulation which promotes deception and lying.

The need to assert Control over others leads to Manipulation. The Manipulation of others leads to varying degrees of Deception and Lying.

Control + Manipulation = Deception/Lying.

[learn_more caption='FYI – It's All in Your Brain'] The tendency to compulsively lie may be attributed to the structure of your brain. A recent study conducted at the University of Southern California (USC) shows that if you have a history of lying, your brain might actually be structured differently than that of a person who is generally honest.

White matter in the prefrontal cortex (the front part of your brain) is responsible for masterminding a lie, which includes weighing how the other party will respond and suppressing your own emotions to limit or eliminate the appearance of nervousness.

Gray matter is the substance that curbs the impulse to lie to make things easier and holds people to their principles.

In the USC study, compulsive liars showed a higher percentage of white matter and a deficit of gray matter.[/learn_more]
