The Lies We're Told

The Lies We're Told

When we tell lies, we will eventually be told lies by others. In Joshua 9, the Gibeonites resort to a ruse to keep from being conquered by the Israelites. When we are lied to, how will we respond?

Series Recap/Setup

3 When the people of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai, 4 they resorted to a ruse:
⁃ They went all out!
⁃ People will deceive you
Our culture says “most people are good”
⁃ Trust takes time to build, and is easily lost
⁃ Trust, but be on guard
⁃ SLEEPOVERS
The Israelites have concerns.
The Lie is You Can’t Be Loved
⁃ Come from an ancestry of trickery
⁃ Sin passed down
⁃ The Israelites bought it!
⁃ The didn’t inquire of the Lord
⁃ When we are lied to we have two choices: reject a lie or believe the lie
⁃ I vs. You
