A Liar Needs a Good Memory to Survive

Recently one of my friends on Facebook, put up a post saying "A liar needs a very good memory to survive".

A lie is a statement from an individual or group of people who cheat by giving some wrong facts on a subject.

Many of us are subjected to so many lies on any given day.

Liars do so with the hope that the truth will not be known.

The bigger the lie the stronger will be the initial belief in it. This is known as "The big lie syndrome".

In order for the lie to last longer, the liar has to depend on his memory in order to tell the lie to several people.

As the liar manufactures more and more lies, he has to remember them more and more in order to keep them going.

So for the liar to remain credible he needs a very good memory to keep the lies alive.

The characteristic of a lie is because it bears no truth , it won't be long before the lie is exposed for what it is.

Some people depend on lies as a means of survival.

In order for them to do so, they have developed "lie manufacturing machinery" that churns out stories that initially look credible.

Satan is the greatest liar of all times. He is forever telling lies to us in order to keep us in bondage.

The Bible refers to Satan as follows :-

". . .He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies." (John 8:44).

Our Lord Jesus Christ tells us that "You shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32)

As Christians we should not allow Satan to take charge of our lives. Let us forever be on guard against his intentions.

"Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard that you do not get led astray by the error of these unprincipled men and fall from your firm grasp on the truth." (2 Peter 3:17).

Amen !
