Mentira

Por Bíblia Online –

A mentira é condenada pela Bíblia como pecado grave. Deus é verdade, e quem mente se alinha com o pai da mentira. O cristão é chamado a falar a verdade em amor.

Deus odeia a mentira

Os lábios mentirosos são abominação para o Senhor. A Bíblia adverte que todo mentiroso terá parte no lago de fogo.

22 Lying lips [are] abomination to the LORD: but the workers of the truth [are] his delight.

8 But the fearful and unbelieving and the abominable and murderers and fornicators and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.

16 These six [things] does the LORD hate: [yea], seven [are] an abomination unto him:17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,18 a heart that devises wicked imaginations, feet that are swift in running to evil,19 a false witness [that] speaks lies, and he that sows discord among brethren.

9 Lie not one to another, putting off the old man with his deeds

Falar a verdade

Despojai-vos da mentira e falai a verdade cada um com o próximo. Cristo é a verdade, e nos chama a ser testemunhas fiéis.

25 Therefore, leaving the lie, speak every man truth with his neighbour, for we are members one of another.

6 Jesus said unto him, I AM the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes unto the Father, but by me.

44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the desires of your father ye desire to do. He was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it.

9 The false witness shall not go unpunished, and [he that] speaks lies shall perish.

7 He that works deceit shall not dwell within my house; he that tells lies shall not tarry in my sight.

Consequências da falsidade

A mentira destrói confiança e relacionamentos. As Escrituras alertam sobre os frutos amargos do engano e da falsidade.

6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue [is] a vanity tossed to and fro of those that seek death.

19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever, but a lying tongue [is] but for a moment.

28 A lying tongue hates [those that are] afflicted by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin.:

6 Thou shalt destroy those that speak lies: the LORD will abominate the bloody and deceitful man.

11 Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.
