Why is there a need to say Abraham lied about Sarah?
I have seen a debate about saying something that is true but not everything.
Now why a hyper-legalist reads this they say, you are concealing something so
are definately lying. The problem is truth is not defined by what you do not say
but the content of what you do say. If the content of what you do say is true,
it is not a lie, though its intention maybe to conceal another truth.
I have seen this tactic used by many to appear to believe a particular idea, knowing
full well one believes something very different.
So for hyper-legalists sin can be just fearing or getting angry.
Problem is if you take this too far, God sinned.
In truth a followers of Jesus we are called to keep the moral law as the fruit of our
walk with Christ. Though in theory we agree with the hyper grace believers, they
want to declare us all law keepers, because underneath it all their is a deeper divide
in their mind.
This is shown by an offer to repent and come to Christ, or really, condemnation and
judgementalism, ie you are not a christian, but agree with me, and you can become
one.
