Is It A Sin To Lie To Yourself? by VirginFinder: 10:13pm On Oct 18, 2013
Just pondered on this issue and concluded it is indeed a sin and I have decided to stop/prevent it.

Reasons

1. It is a sin to kill yourself

2. It is a sin to defile your body - fornication, adultery, masturbation etc

The above are sins one commits against their own body.

Hence, it is equally a sin to lie to yourself. cool

What do you think? smiley

Really?

Do you ever feel ok after lying to yourself or do you suffer guilty conscience?

Also, there is a tendency for it to lead to another sin.
