Ron MillsRon Mills' Story - At the age of 22 I started to consider suicide as an answer to feelings of hopelessness. By the time I was 23 I would get brief periods of wondering “is this all there is to life?" I remember going to night clubs after drug use and drinking and just standing amongst hundreds of people and feeling very alone and tired of life. There had to be more to this Life (more...)


Is telling a half-truth a lie? Print E-mail
Does honesty require me to answer a question with all the information I have?

When the high priest charged the Lord to tell if He were the Christ, the Son of God, He responded with a complete answer. By His reference to Scripture (Daniel 7:13; Psalm 110:1,2; 2:2,7), He provided sufficient information to fully answer the question, although He could have said more. Therefore, an answer need give only the information requested.

A response that hurts the hearer or injures his relationship with another will not edify or impart grace to the hearer (Ephesians 4:29). There must be a better answer.
