Lying

We are so quick to associate lying with words, but how much quicker we lie by our actions or lack there of. What I mean is, we turn down our expressions of faith amongst mixed company. It is so natural we don't even think about it.

How many of us will pray over our meals at home, but not when we are in public. What is your behavior like during a Sunday school fellowship as opposed to a work party? I can go on, but hopefully you get the point.

If you get my point, then here is the plain simple truth; our actions lie for us, to us, and about us. Either you are in Christ or you are not. Either way we need to quit lying to others or quit deceiving ourselves. If you truly are in Christ the don't just talk like it act like it as well.

Colossians 3:9-10
Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
