The Big Lie

It is fitting that we end this series with the commandment not to tell a lie since the fall of man was based on a lie of the devil. It was that lie that Eve believed that separated man from God. It was that lie that led to sin that is at the root cause of violence, war, poverty, racism and all of the other social ills that our world deals with. A lie is defined as an untrue statement with the intent to deceive. It is the deception of the lies that God hates and that we as followers of Christ should avoid.
