Inherently Wrong

Lying to someone is inherently wrong because: it violates another person's right to make their own choices; it insults the other person's ability to handle the truth: it cuts off the other person's awareness of their need for God's help to handle the truth; it raises one' self above another and therefore is inherently filled with pride (Colossians 3:9-11).

God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6).
