Be careful!
Lying can certainly lead
to the destruction of others!

"...Do not lie to one another,
since you laid aside the old self
with its evil practices,
and have put on the new self
who is being renewed to a true knowledge
according to the image
of the One who created him—..."
"...He who speaks truth tells what is right,
But a false witness, deceit.
There is one who speaks rashly
like the thrusts of a sword,
But the tongue of the wise brings healing.
Truthful lips will be established forever,
But a lying tongue is only for a moment.
Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
But counselors of peace have joy.
No harm befalls the righteous,
But the wicked are filled with trouble.
Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord,
But those who deal faithfully are His delight..."
