Hi,
My name is Abigale Best, and YES I do think that you can lie without saying a word. You can lie with your eyes, or a nod. Sometimes not saying anything is worse than saying a lie. For an example, if I asked you, if you thought I was a horrible person (let’s say you did), and you said nothing, I would assume that you did. But, if you said, “I don’t think you are a horrible person, I think you can work on your attitude a little” I would feel much better. Even though you would know in your heart, there’s no way all the work in the world would ever change my attitude.
yes!! When you know someone is not telling the whole truth or you go along with a lie or half truth even though you’re not repeating or spreading anything your supporting the lie, hence confirming it.
Great question
Yes! I believe that a person can lie without speaking. For instance we tell are self things like “I’m useless” or “I’m so alone” but those are lies that satan has planted within us to trip us up because the reality is that God says not only are you not alone but that he created you with a divine purpose that we can’t even imagine. I believe that when we allow thoughts like those to dwell in our minds we are lying to ourselves even if we never say it out loud.
