Proverbs 6:16-17 "These six things doth the Lord hate, yea seven are an abomination unto Him. A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood."
Once, a mans word meant something. Once fights and duels were fought over the accusation of deceit. Yet, today men throw that accusation out like candy. The Lord is clear in His Word that any form of deceit is an abomination. God sees lying as a serious sin. Yet today we here phrases like "A little white lie." To God there are no white lies or brown lies or green lies. He only sees the filth of the sin of lying. Maybe we ought to take another look at we accuse people of. Just because a person states something that is not true does not mean that he is a liar. Lying involves knowingly imparting false information. May we begin to watch our speech that we do not fall into this serious sin, nor flippantly accuse others of this sin. May truth once again stand important to all.
