I mean this to be open, for what any of us have to say about this. I understand that any Christian Forums member is welcome to share here, about this.
I think there are people who are just insecure; so they lie because they don't realize people love them, and they fear being rejected. This is sad. They already are missing out on love, and this is worse than dying.
I have been through this. I have been simply too ashamed to tell something to people, even though I knew they love me and even would forgive me.
In such cases, I am not mainly concerned about what someone deserves. Because Jesus wants the person to turn to Him and trust Him and be forgiven. Jesus gets us forgiven, though we do not deserve this.
I would say what matters is what causes a person to lie . . . not really just the lie itself.do you believe I deserve death for lying?
