Liar. ( John 8 v 44 )

I saw a photo recently, it depicted a plaque on the wall of a dental surgery,with the following words on it,'Painless dentist'.  Underneath the plaque a young lad was stretching up with chalk in his hand,and he wrote the word liar.It made me laugh,but telling lies is not a laugh,God is not pleased when we lie,in Proverbs 12 v22 we read, ' The Lord detests lying lips, the Av ,translates it,'Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord'. One writer makes the following comment on these words,'God can't stomach lies', yes these words are severe but God takes lying very seriously,after all he is the God of truth. We read in Hebrews 6 v 18,'It is impossible for God to lie',when He speaks the truth,when He gives a promise he keeps it, that means that God is utterly trustworthy, and so we can take Him at his word.Hitlers Third Reich ,(Reich means kingdom) was built on lies.Hitler declared that the Third Reich would last a 1000 years,instead it only lasted about 12 .A kingdom built on lies will not last, God will see to that,likewise a life or relationship will not last,that is why we can be assured Satan's kingdom will one day cease to exist.There is an old saying that goes, 'Tell the truth and shame the devil',it is always right to speak the truth and honour God, than telling a lie and dishonouring Him.
