egift:

To save mine? - No (I may end up in hell)

To save another? - Yes (Its a sacrifice - its less crime than the first) i may just short-cut to heaven (my life were in good state earlier and this action were of good intent.

That's how I see it.

egift, why if you do not tell lie to save your life and you are killed and you go to hell.

hisssssss, I lie everyday of my life. So to save someone's life I will lie so perfectly wit will be more of truth telling.

This question is not even for a Nigerian, the name Nigeria is a lie, foundation of the country built on lies, political leaders are liars even day old babies lie to suck breast milk twice in a role, did I hear u say how? A mother feeds a day old baby 2 mins later the baby cries for more breast milk, arguing he/she ain't had none in a while. Ask the Danish, the Japs, the Aussies, the Canadians then you will get a credible answer.

I would lie a hundred times to save a life. Lying to a bad person who wants to kill is a good deed.
Re: Would You Lie To Save A Life? by chuqudy(m): 10:39pm On Jul 19, 2010
Well, I see lie as an intellect. If you use it possitively, I do not see any thing wrong in it. But using it wrongly as in the case of putting an innocent person into trouble or protecting an unrepentant criminal is bad.

A "born again" once told me that he can never tell lies because all lies are sins and lead to hell.  Then I asked him this question.
If hired assasins or armed robbers come to your house in search of your father. And you know quite well that your father is hidding under the bed. Now, the criminals search every where and could not find your father. If they come to ask you your fathers where about, would you tell them that your father is hiding under the bed?
The "Born again" became dumb founded.

Because if he says he does not know where his father is, he has told lies and he will go to hell. If he says "my dad is under the bed" his father would die.

Please all Born again and holy people here, if it were you, what will you do.

Re: Would You Lie To Save A Life? by Tcrack(m): 2:04am On Jul 20, 2010
the bible says, lying is a sin and the smallest sin can prevent you from the kingdom of God. would you prefer me to lie, save the persons life and spend my eternity in hell? besides is it my fault that he got himself into the shitt he is in? if it is his destiny to die, die he must. i have never lied in my life and i wont do it for any reason.
E isso mesmo

grin grin grin thats a beautiful question
am not one of the holier than thou but let me tell you what they will answer you.
my Father on earth will die if it has been assigned by God that he will die by the assassins but if he has not been assigned that he will die that way he can never die that way because even if they shoot him he will not die!
and even if he dies God knows i never wanted to fall into sin that was why i said the truth even at a point of death.
God will now reward me and gives me the fortitude to bear the loss. cool cool
