I Timothy 4:2 “Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;”

Paul admonishes Timothy to be on alert for those who speak lies in hypocrisy, for these people will ruin your very soul if you allow them access.  A lie is when you outright intend to deceive for the purpose of creating a deliberate advantage for yourself.  Men now will express, look, or even live a lie just to deceive you; God only deals with what is true.  The saint’s desire should never be to go the easy or deceptive route.  God will help us but He wants us to stay in the parameters that He has created for us.
