The Peril of Telling Lies

By Sunday School Times

TELLING a lie increases a man's peril, in whatever danger he finds himself. So long as a child of God speaks the truth, he can leave the responsibility of his truth-telling with God. But when he departs from the truth, he becomes responsible for all the consequences of his unauthorized course. His only hope then is in the "father of lies," and the devil is not to be trusted in an emergency. —Sunday School Times.
