Just a little wave of thought I had to ponder over.
I have been contemplating something lately that is rather disturbing but true. I know it is wrong to lie, infact the bible states it is a sin and it is one of the ten commandments,however;is it considered a sin by making someone feel good about themselves if they are so lowly that it requires a white lie in order to make them feel better?
I realize that is a hard question to answer so here goes, I told a little white lie yesterday to a friend and have asked myself if the gratefulness and happiness it created worth sinning for? I have to admit, it undoubtedly was!There is nothing like the feeling of helping someone to feel better about themselves and if it takes a white lie in order to do so, then so be it!
So the question is now, is it a sin to help someone by sinning, especially if you know you are sinning? If so then I guess I’m going to hell.
