Can someone lie to save life?
When armrobbers come to your house, and ask if your parent are indoors?
A friend of mine answer no and the armrobbers left.

BUT AS A BELIEVER IS THIS A SIN?


I will really appreciate all your contributions to this topic.

There's no direct answer , it depends on the situation. Became if we say "no" we indirectly sanction lying, and everyone will give good excuses for lying.

Some lying were justified in the bible and some people Died for lying in the bible.
