Why do people tell lies?

Three University student didn't write an exam because they did not study. They came up with a plan, got themselves dirty using grease then went to see the Dean.
"Sir we are sorry we couldn't make it to the exam. We attended a wedding and on our way back the car broke down thus we became so dirty as you can see."
The Dean understood and gave them three days to prepare. After three days they went to the Dean very ready for the exam because they had studied.
The Dean put them in there separate classes.
There were only four questions in the exam paper:

1. Who and who got married? (25 mks)
2. Where was the reception held? (25mks)
3. Where exactly did the car break down? (25mks)
4. What type of car broke down? (25mks)
   Note: Your answers must be the same.
   MORAL LESSON: A lie is a temporary solution to a permanent problem. Lying will enslave you. But truth will set you free.

PASTOR W F KUMUYI

Now let read two bible verse condemning lie and ponder on them

Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord , But those who deal truthfully are His delight.
Proverbs 12:22 NKJV

These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.
Proverbs 6:16‭-‬19 NKJV
