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 an abomination to Jehovah, but those who deal in faithfulness are His delight.

8 But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, prostitutes, sorcerers, 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 Jehovah hates; yea, seven are an abomination to his soul:17 Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,18 a heart that devises evil plans, feet hurrying to run to evil,19 a false witness who breathes lies, and he who spreads strife among brothers.

9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his practices,

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 one of you 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 except through Me.

44 You are of the devil as your father, and the lusts of your father you purpose to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own, for he is a liar and the father of it.

9 A false witness shall not go unpunished, and he who speaks lies shall perish.

7 He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house; he who tells lies shall not be established 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 acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity driven about by those who seek death.

19 The lips of truth shall be established forever, but a lying tongue is but for a twinkling moment.

28 A lying tongue hates those crushed by it, and a flattering mouth brings about ruin.

6 You shall destroy those who speak lies; Jehovah abhors the man of blood and treachery.

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