if you were targeted for assassination for speaking the truth, and you hide out in my place, then the mercenaries arrive and asks if you were with me. if I say, no isn't it a righteous lie should I have delivered you up to your enemies? |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by MuttleyLaff: 2:34pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
Gggg102:Please, are you finding it difficult to stick to the terminology used in the thread subject heading? Righteous lie is what is asked about and not a whether "If I say, no, isn't it a good lie" alternate question |

MuttleyLaff: Is that a righteous lie or not? what should a righteous person do in that situation? |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by Gggg102(m): 2:39pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
MuttleyLaff: changed it |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by MuttleyLaff: 2:48pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
hopefulLandlord:You and I know what a righteous person in that situation will do What about you, I mean, just as you are, as in for sake of this discussion, have with no righteous halo hanging over your head, what would you do in that situation? Gggg102:Why? Your "changed it" reason is? |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by hopefulLandlord: 2:51pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
MuttleyLaff: If I do I wouldn't be asking |

Gggg102: Gggg102: Gggg102:Are you alright? Why repeat post three times I asked you to stick to the "righteous" terminology used by OP and the question Nobody asked you or wants you change it with alternate adjectives you take fancy to Sticking to remit of the question, is the righteous thing to do. Capisce |

MuttleyLaff: bad network. righteous is longer to type than good. can't risk losing signal + extremely low battery |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by Gggg102(m): 3:35pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
MuttleyLaff: capisce |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by MuttleyLaff: 3:38pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
Gggg102:Thank you and be blessed. Sorry to hear and know about the challenges you're going through with the network and faltering battery You may proceed though, if you have anything else to add. |

hopefulLandlord:You dont? You dont know what you would do in that situation? What a real shame then if you dont OK, the question is not anymore about, what would you do in that situation but now, what you think, should a righteous person do in that situation. Try and just give guesses, go with your gut reactions 1 Like |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by hopefulLandlord: 4:27pm On Mar 04, 2018 |
MuttleyLaff: What I'll do? of course I'll lie to the assassins so long I have all the angles covered (don't want them realising I lied and they kill both me and ggg102) but that's because I don't accept that morality is objective and a code handed down by imaginary friends Many Christians however say morality is objective and unchanging, any lie is a lie and it leads to hell |

hopefulLandlord:In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? - James 2:25 Of course, you'll have to give it a careful thought, just as Rahab did considering the circumstances she found herself in Well you've made a good and proper judgement then if you lie as if Gggg102 was targeted for assassination for speaking the truth, and he hid out in your place, then the mercenaries arrive and asks if Gggg102 is with with you. if you say, no, then you've told a righteous lie Concerning: "Should you have delivered Gggg102 up to your enemies?" Definitely, as assassins will do, the mercenaries will kill you next after snuffing life out of Gggg102 so to what end or what purpose will it serve, delivering truth speaking Gggg102 up to your enemies? hopefulLandlord:You are not bearing false witness against your neighbour in this circumstance nor was Rahab in hers |

PastorAIO: you are so confused, of course, post the verses you are referring to, the nonsense in your head doesn't cut it |

PastorAIO: oh i do, but i'm talking truth which is why you don't comprehend 1 Like |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by johnw74: 12:32am On Mar 05, 2018 |
PastorAIO: ha ha, you know nothing of truth to be spiritually dead is to be fallen from God's grace oh my |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by johnw74: 12:43am On Mar 05, 2018 |
PastorAIO: of course he is spiritually dead, as you keep showing you are some say he was once in God's grace, but fell from God's grace in wanting to be above God |

MuttleyLaff: pastor: A pastor is an ordained leader of a Christian congregation |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by PastorAIO: 4:28am On Mar 05, 2018 |
johnw74: 22Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us in knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of the tree of life and eat, and live forever—” 23therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden- Genesis 3 In spite of the so call spiritual death that you are talking about (lol) the bible tells us that if they continued to eat from the tree of life they would live forever. |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by PastorAIO: 4:32am On Mar 05, 2018 |
johnw74: actually I understand you all too well. I was having a conversation with someone about the translation of a line of hebrew text and you jumped in totally off context saying 'this is the opposite of that' bla bla bla. That is the extent of your... 'truth'. |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by PastorAIO: 4:35am On Mar 05, 2018 |
johnw74: To be 'spiritually dead' is when you use words and phrases that are meaningless and you just spew it up without thought or intelligence or Nous. |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by PastorAIO: 4:36am On Mar 05, 2018 |
johnw74: You can take it to court. |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by johnw74: 5:15am On Mar 05, 2018 |
PastorAIO: Revelation 22:14 Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by its gates. however adam and eve in disobeying God fell from their right to the tree of life and were put out of the garden, and an angel was put in place so as they couldn't return they may have repented - washed their robes at a later time but that's another subject |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by johnw74: 5:24am On Mar 05, 2018 |
PastorAIO: ha ha do you mean like the above |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by johnw74: 5:26am On Mar 05, 2018 |
PastorAIO: in other words i put you in your place concerning scripture and you still cannot see it, smile |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by PastorAIO: 7:02am On Mar 05, 2018 |
johnw74: I know you have difficulty following an argument but the flow is as follows: You asked for biblical proof for my statement that in spite of your so called 'spiritual death' If Adam and Eve continued to eat of the Tree of Life they would never have died (according to the bible). You asked me for verses to prove what I said. I provided the verses Genesis 3 : 22 washing robes and what not in revelation has no bearing on my point. If you cannot refute that death is a result of not eating from the tree of life then the decent non-hypocrite, non-christian thing to do would be to just shut up. |
Re: Is There Anything Like "A Righteous Lie"? by PastorAIO: 7:03am On Mar 05, 2018 |
johnw74: The above like the bible verses I quoted for you? Your blasphemy is between you and your so called god. |
