Many months ago, I was told about a very fine Christian, cum Pastor who was accosted by armed robbers. Nothing amazes more, believe me. Source: http://www.unodiscuss.com/2016/11/12/godly-sins-and-their-underlying-usefulness/ 10 Likes 4 Shares |

It is never godly to sin. Sin is lawlessness, and it is never godly to be lawless. "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." 1 Cor. 10:13 As far as we continue to try our very best to obey GOD through His strength, He will not allow temptations that we cannot withstand to overtake us. That Rahab lied to protect the spies does not mean that GOD approved of her lies. Indelibly etched in the 10 Commandments is the injunction not to bear false witness. GOD is able to save those spies without Rahab's lies. The problem is that many Christians don't believe that GOD can save them when they choose to remain holy. The Bible and the life of Jesus should be our only guide in this upward course of ours. It is never godly to go against GOD's command. Remember Uzzah and how he died trying to help GOD. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

All I can deduce from all u have written @op is that u lack understanding of the word of God. But be careful n don't aid the devil in deceiving ppl because God cannot be mocked, what a man sow that he shall reap. Do not incure the anger of Gods wrath. A brotherly advise though. 7 Likes |

We attach everything to spiritual meaning. What the pastor lacks is wisdom. He should ask God for wisdom, cos to me this can be termed as folly besides y won't you lie to someone who has come to rob you off your possession, still the lie the bible was talking about was when you are asked a question by a honest man, do not lie not wen bandits ask you. Infact I'm sure if he was asked about his bank account and personal info, he will divulge it. To me he is a foolish bride and should ask God to guide him and to understand his word perfectly. Even men of God lied in the Bible to save God people. abraham lied and it was justified |

Sin is sin... and there is nothing godly in sin. God has a thousand and one ways to protect His own but we always limit him by our own actions and human reasoning(s). 2 Likes |

*_A girl missed her period 2 months ago,her mom took her to the clinic for pregnancy test of which it was positive.Embarrased, her mom said; who is the pig that got you pregnant? The girl picked up her phone and made a call, an hour later,a young handsome man drove in Ferrari to the girl's house. Good evening, the man greeted. Your daughter told me the problem in the house. I can't marry for now because of my family issue, but I promise I will take care of her for the rest of her life, and if she gives birth to a girl,I promised to buy her a mansion, 2 jeeps and 1 million dollars. If it's a boy, I'll buy her houses in a country side, 5 jeeps, 2 big factories and 5million dollars in her account. If it's twins, I'll do anything she asked. But if there's miscarriage, what do you suggest i do? The girls father silently pat the young man on his shoulder and said; my son, if there is miscarriage, you'll sleep with her again and again and... till she gets pregnant again! *_A girl missed her period 2 months ago,her mom took her to the clinic for pregnancy test of which it was positive.Embarrased, her mom said; who is the pig that got you pregnant?

Abraham lied that sarah was his sister to save his life. Jacob/Isreal lied and cheated his brother n father in-law. Not all lies are sin or bad. If abraham said d truth he would av been killed If jacob was honest, the isreal we knw today would ave been called esau. A lie becomes sin when its intent it to cause harm or pain to another. This goes for other acts we see as sin. For example if someone wants to kill me and I over powered n kill him in self defence, I don't think I have committed any sin. My take. Happy Christ the King feast to all Catholicas! 9 Likes |

DoctorAlien:Oh, really?? But Rahab was honored as a hero of faith in the new testament now... Even Abraham lied and God did not hold it against him. In fact, God sent d spirit of lie into some prophets at some point to confuse a king meaning God initiated the lying. That you are not comfortable with some things in the bible doesn't make them any less true 1 Like |

DoctorAlien: One dimensional Xtain........... Do if a gun is put on someone's head, tht I care about and I know tht the only way to save that person's life is to lie about something, like like about the moni I have...... So I should go ahead ND say the truth. God doesn't have to come down n do what u can do for urself If there's a way out, for a greater good, weda it's false or not..... Take the path for the greater good |

ABRAHAM LIED SO MANY TIMES, DAVID LIED N EVEN KILLED, RAHAB LIED. BUT REMEMBER DAT SHE DOESN'T NO ANYTHING ABOUT GOD'S LAWS COS SHE'S NOT AN ISRAELITE. SHE CAME FROM A PAGAN CULTURE. BUT SOMETHING INSIDE HER TOLD HER 2 TRUST D GOD OF D ISRAELITES. MY POINT IS DAT ON D DAY OF JUDGEMENT, IT'S UR HEART N CONSCIENCE DAT WILL JUDGE MANY. GOD SPEAKS 2 ALL INCLUDING SINNERS, SO NOBODY WILL AN OFFER EXCUSE 2 HIM ON DAT DAY. |

DoctorAlien: That there's no such thing as Godly Sin, you're Right. A Sin is a sin, no categorizing. To seek Forgiveness is the anti-dote. But that you should not lie to save your life believing that God would intervene at that moment is just foolhardy. I believe the bible is a guide to Ideal Living. Discretion should hence be applied as it applies to everyday living. 1 Like 1 Share |
