DISCOURSE ON THE CONCEPT OF LYING OR NOT TELLING THE TRUTH

Everyone has different ideas & concepts about lies, what are they, how do we identify a lie, is there different kinds of lies or different degrees of lies, are some lies acceptable & are others unacceptable & who has the right to make these decisions. The main factors in our perception of lies could be a result of being a carryover from our previous life embodiments, or from our training when we were growing up as a child or from new concepts we have made about lies in this present life.

One person will say that something was a lie, another person will defend it & say it is not a lie. Our perceptions about what constitutes a lie can be very different. We also will differ in opinion on what constitutes a lie under certain conditions. We will differ on whether some lies are acceptable and some lies are unacceptable, some legalistic folks will say no lies are acceptable and there are those that believe that some lies are acceptable and in some cases very necessary. There are many that believe that all lies are acceptable.

From a spiritual perspective lies are not about right or wrong, good or bad, only about our well being and whether something is constructive to our future or destructive to our future, whether things will help us expand or cause us to regress, it is all based on the good of our future, which is the  result of Divine love which is the essence of God Being. Appraising things as right or wrong is what has got us all into the negative density of the natural world and this needs to stop. We  will eventually learn our lessons and we will then move on to better & higher things in our lives & worlds.

From the Spiritual Realm, intent & motives are a very important issue when appraising any thought, feeling or action in any situation or circumstance. Was there intent to deceive or to harm someone or something in a lie or was it simply miss-leading or was it to protect something or someone or ourselves. Was the intent in the lie, to cause harm to another soul in embodiment or to save them from harm.

Is withholding information a lie, for example if you know something, have knowledge of something, but choose not to reveal it to certain people or to anyone. Are you required to reveal all information that you have at all times, or is it your own individual choice and is the information that you have true, or maybe you just think it is true & maybe it is false.

Spiritual life is all about balance, it is not about one extreme or another, it is the narrow way or the middle way, it is in the balance. Correct or profitable thought, feeling & action would depend on the circumstances or situations that arise. Everything is individually unique and as such needs to be appraised in its particular setting or environment. If you tend to blanket things with only one perspective, you likely will not get a true perception of an event, circumstance or situation. Everything stands or falls on its own merits.

Spiritual laws are always consistent, always reliable and stand forever. If anyone breaks these laws, they will suffer the consequences, there is no escape. However, these laws are not designed for our punishment, but to save us from self destruction. There is the laws of life, law of love, the law of forgiveness, the law of acceptance, freedom, what you do, you reap the results of and so on. Experiencing the positive aspect of living within the protective laws of God will bring long term self-sustainable, Divine living.

Experiencing the perceived negative side of the Cosmic laws is not punishment, it is spiritual awakening to ensure we do not self destruct in lower energy negativity. Spiritual laws ensure that we all evolve into greater spiritual beings and create a sustainable future for ourselves & everyone else. Spiritual laws are here to protect us from total destruction, to give us a wake up call to enable us to see correctly and to make needed corrections in our lives & lifestyles, as well as belief systems, perceptions, processing, mental and emotional feeling world.

These Universal & Cosmic laws govern our lives in this world & ensure our long term survival through experience & self correction. If we flow with the higher laws of God-being we will experience the blessings & joy of following God being into eternal life. If we continually break the laws of Divine living, we will experience human created negativity or suffering, by our own choices; this brings in Divine balance to everything. If you have humility & surrender to the greater will within you and are sorry for your mistakes and propose to make change, you will be restored.

There are acceptable lies and unacceptable lies & the acceptable ones always have good intentions as a motive and the unacceptable always have destructive intentions as the motive. 

Some people say there are white lies and black lies, white lies are suppose to be harmless or necessary and black lies are considered to be very destructive. In the spiritual realm there is, in reality, no bad & no good or right & wrong, there is only what is profitable to us and what is not profitable to us in our spiritual expansion. Appraising things as right or wrong will keep souls trapped in the density of this world. Living life is about experience & change, both of which can be enlightening, joyful & exhilarating for the future.

A white lie would be like, I am telling someone that I don´t like ice-cream, but I really do like it, but I do not want them to know that I really like it, maybe I am overweight and embarrassed, or for other various reasons. A white lie would always have a good motive. Of course, protecting ourselves is not as beneficial as protecting others, but it is also important. These can be just simply personal preferences and maybe we are speaking about what we want to be, rather than what we presently are and this is just simply choice and may help us get into a better place. Maybe the person that is overweight is simply protecting themselves from embarrassment, keeping in mind that it is always more enlightening to take responsibility for our thoughts, feelings & actions, make the change and move on. This is not good or bad, it is just free will choice to reveal what you choose to reveal to others.

A black lie would be for a thief to tell you they are going to help you, when they are secretly planning to rob you. In this case, the thief will be the one to experience the consequences of their actions and if the person, who was robbed, would not get bitter and hate, but would love & forgive the thief, they would be compensated for their losses, otherwise it would just simply be a loss and both parties sink further into negativity or density. These are spiritual laws in motion and they will never fail. If you always take the path of Divine love & forgiveness and to willingly change, you will always succeed, spiritually. Human created conditional love will not ultimately succeed in life, so it is better to choose the higher unconditional Divine love, it is all encompassing & very powerful.

So many white lies could be harmless and with good intent and many black lies could bring forth much suffering. Some people think that a lie is a lie and there are no degrees, but that is simply black & white thinking and is not reasonable in conception. There are far too many different circumstances in the conditions of lies to embrace black & white thinking. Everything needs to be evaluated by its own merits, conditions or circumstances.

Common sense needs to be used in evaluating anything, including lies. Withholding information should not be considered a lie, if the motive is acceptable, unless it is intended to be deceitful or used to create negativity, destruction, suffering or more harm to another individual soul.

We have been given free will & we have a right to use it. Withholding information could be constructive or destructive depending on the situation. We may think certain information is important to a situation and maybe in reality it is not important at all. We may think certain information is not important to a situation and maybe in reality it is important. It is all filled with many possibilities and it all has to be by free will choice. We can cause others harm by our own opinions & counsel that is not good for the person or the situation. We had better know that it is good counsel before we give it or we could cause much harm to another person & their present life & world. 

If a young girl is walking down a road and sees a big man beating up on a small boy, the boy gets away from the man and in a blind spot, he hides himself under a fence. The girl sees the boy hide under the fence. The very angry man sees the girl and says where did the boy go and the girl says that the boy went off down the street and saves the boy from further abuse. It is a lie, yes, but is it an acceptable lie, to save someone from further harm. Or should the girl have told what she knew as the truth and allow the boy to suffer more or even maybe be killed, I think that would be a 
no-brainer. I think common sense would show us that that lie she told was acceptable because it was in defense of another soul. So then, contrary to the legalists it is acceptable to lie under some circumstances, it would appear. These circumstances could vary to many different degrees in which some people would agree and some would not agree. You do not have to make these decisions for others, only to make them for yourself.

So there is no good reason to criticize or judge or condemn others on lying, because it is all in the individual perception, it all depends on motives and situations as we are not responsible for others, only for ourselves. You might present a certain situation of possible lying to ten different people and have ten different opinions as to whether it was lying or not and whether it is acceptable or not and if it was acceptable was it really needed in that particular situation.

We need to leave all of these things to God, who clearly knows the motives, intent, thought and feeling of the individual souls, surrounding any situation, circumstance or event. God with His cosmic laws will always operate in Divine justice and is the only source that is capable of maintaining Divine justice, for individual souls and in the world. Arch Angel Michael and his billions of blue flame angels will ensure Divine justice among souls on earth and within the planet.

When harm is purposely intended and done to another soul, spiritual law then will activate and balance any situation or circumstance that needs to be balanced. The soul who is causing harm to another, will eventually have to experience the same thing later, in maybe a somewhat different situation or circumstance. There is no better teacher, than true experience, to bring true understanding.

We are in human form and are mostly incapable of justly criticizing, judging or condemning any circumstance, situation or person, since we only have very limited perception, thinking & feeling on anything that happens. In order to judge correctly we would need to be perfect, like God, but until that time comes, it is much better to let the Divine world deal with all of these different things, and we can then focus & concentrate on creating more good and positive things in ourselves & around us.

We can, sometimes have correct viewing on something, a situation, circumstance or another person, however it doesn´t happen often, so it would be wise to just not do it. If you have a correct viewing-point, it is acceptable, however if your viewing point is incorrect, you will make negative Karma for yourself, that will need to be balanced later on, what you sow, you reap. The only safe way is, if you don´t have something good to say, don´t say anything at all and in addition, if you don´t have anything good to think, don´t think at all or if you don´t have anything good to feel, don´t feel anything at all, than you can protect yourself from creating more negativity.

That is why Jesus said, judge not, lest you be judged, the chance of you being correct in your judgment is slim, so it is better to stay silent, instead of taking the chance of creating more negativity for yourself. When they brought a convicted adulterous to Jesus for judgment, He just simply said, he who is without sin, or he who has not made a mistake, cast the first stone & of course they all went away sad & embarrassed as there were none righteous & if there was one righteous, they would have likely sent out forgiveness and still avert vicious judgment anyway.  Punishment is never valid under any circumstances, only rehabilitation, we will all eventually discover this in our lives. Punishment should not be a part of our consciousness in this world, only rehabilitation should be acceptable.

Let everyone make their own decisions on lying and let everyone walk in Divine love, Acceptance & forgiveness and leave everything else up to God, who is the only being that is capable of bringing Divine justice to anyone or any situation or any circumstance ever created in the world.

Multiple Blessings to all of the lovely & beautiful souls whether they are presently aware of it or not….
