Is it okay for a Christian to lie?

How very creepy.

Hows the stalking going? Got your kill yet?
Evil, heartless oaf.

Best description of the Deucer I’ve heard.

Claims to be an upper echelon professional but spends all day on here red-thumbing posts from people he doesn’t like and harassing them.

Now, I'm sure our recent returner who has lied repeatedly about previously being banned from the site has justified his lies to himself. No doubt he has told himself that lying to atheists doesn't really count as lying. The problem is, howeve ...[text shortened]... that the holy spirit that has transformed the believer isn't really that bothered about falsehoods?

Is okay for anyone to lie, why put the question to only those who claim to be Christian? Is it okay to hate another person? Anything else that should not be done that we do on a daily basis, okay?

I don’t “claim to be a Christian,” KellyJay. I am a Christian.

I wasn’t aware you were perfect - the first perfect Christian who ever lived.

Congratulations.

How easily you’re duped by the deceiving Deucer.

Is okay for anyone to lie?

Generally no, but in some circumstances yes.

Is it okay to hate another person?

Used sparingly [for one's own equilibrium if for nothing else], I think yes. Would it be OK to hate whoever the man was who had raped four women in my neighbourhood, for example? Yes, it would be an instance where "hate" was natural, understandable, and acceptable.

Anything else that should not be done that we do on a daily basis, okay?

Having sex with children or others who cannot give informed consent. Murdering people. Degrading common land to the detriment of other stakeholders. Stealing [in almost every imaginable circumstance]. Committing adultery. Coercing people with threats of violence. Inciting violence. Things like that.

Not questioning anything about you but everyone.

I predict you will run away from this response to your question, KellyJay.

The way you phrased it indicates otherwise:

<<Is okay for anyone to lie, why put the question to only those who claim to be Christian?>>

I was the only one the Deucer put the question to.

Have you been on the receiving end of the Trolling Trio’s hate and harassment? I didn’t think so. How easy for you to judge and condemn how Christians react to what you don’t experience.
