When someone takes a phone call from you? :killinme:hypercoffee

I don't know that a lie ever is. Sometimes, though, not telling everything or being vague may make sense--but intentionally telling a falsehood is listed as a sin in the Bible.

Brett,
Lets say you give someone your WORD, just to find out their word means nothing?

Definitely when someone's life is in danger and the lie is necessary to divert attn...

Not keep your WORD because someone else broke their's..........
Quote:
Psa 15:1 - 5 (KJV)
1 LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
Do you think this could be interpreted: "gave his word to his own hurt, but kept it anyway"?

Since when does someone else not having integrity mean I should not uphold mine?
