Proverbs 12:19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment. 20 Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
Blatant falsehoods from political candidates are not only expected and mandated in too many instances, they have become the norm, and outright lying is now considered fair game in today’s world. When asked about the malpractice of falsehoods in those instances where one is knowingly peddling lies, the response is often “What’s wrong with that”.
As a direct and inevitable result, democracy as we know it will come to an end one day, as the book of Revelation declares will be the case. An autocratic form of government would one day overspread the land, and it will be the result of persons persistently and deliberately manipulating facts and truth, so as to serve their own purposes.
When this is the case, persons will inevitably follow in the footsteps of their invisible leader who has not only perfected the malpractice of deliberate lying, but has now permanently occupied the top echelon of the totem pole, by actually believing falsehoods he peddles, and as a direct result, the permanent state of delusionary thought and action becomes one’s way of life.
Revelation 21:7 He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
