The Things God Hates
A Lying Tongue
A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin. Proverbs 26:28
We’ve all encountered them, and we may even have them in our families: the known liar. Our family has a close connection with one who spews hatred about us and uses flattery to make the person she’s talking to think she is truthful. Her sweet tone of voice is part of her weaponry. She can hold you captive with her every word and make you believe that what she is saying is true. She mixes in just enough verifiable truth that you assume that it’s all true. She has hoodwinked many into believing her. What’s worse is she claims to be a Christian and was raised by a preacher. Unfortunately for this liar, God has released the enemy to collect the debt she owes, and now, in her grandmotherly age, she is paying the price.
Remember, it is better to face the consequences of the truth than to participate in something that God hates.
