I hate dishonesty with a passion.
My patience with certain people is running dangerously thin. And the people I'm talking about are ones whose default response is not honesty, but whatever feels most convenient to getting them what they want.
I have come to the immensely horrible realization that for some people, at this rate when their response is actually the truth it's just a coincidence.
That when they speak truth it's because in that case it coincides with getting them what they want when they want it, not because their conscience or respect for the person they are talking to compels them to give a real answer.
~~
Hebrews 13:18, be honest in all things.
Yes, God lets us use a variety of principles to discern what the right thing to do is. But being dishonest is flat out not a day-to-day option or something okay to use for convenience or selfish gain for a servant of God.
And the crazy thing is so many of these people say they believe in God.
Do they actually think God does not hear or care about you lying to people (sometimes people you even claim to love), or do they not believe in God and this is just another one of their lies to get themselves what they want?
