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] hateful to the LORD, but those who deal truly [are] His delight.

8 But the fearful, and the unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, will have their part in the Lake burning with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.

16 These six the LORD hates; yea, seven [are] hateful to his soul:17 a proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,18 a heart that plots wicked plans, feet hurrying to run to evil,19 a false witness [who] speaks lies, and he who causes fighting among brothers.

9 Do not lie to one another, having put 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 putting away lying, let each man speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.

6 Jesus said to him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father but by Me.

44 You are of the Devil as father, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from [the] beginning, and did not abide 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 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and one speaking lies shall perish.

7 [He] who works falsely shall not dwell within my house; he who tells lies shall not stay 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 by those who seek death.

19 The lips of truth shall be established forever, but only] while I wink [is] a lying tongue.

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

6 You shall destroy those who speak lies; the LORD will despise the bloody and deceitful man.

11 You shall not steal, nor lie, nor be deceitful to one another.
