Clinton said, “I smoked but did not inhale.” Later he said, “I did not have sex with that woman.” To be fair and balanced Nixon said, “I am not a crook.” Chamberlain coming back from Germany in 1938 with a document signed by Hitler said, “Peace in our time.”
World leaders today haven’t improved much in the area of this deficiency in human nature. On the other hand, there is still a market for people wanting to consume lies. There is even a verse for this:
2 Timothy 4:3
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
Give it some thought. The truth can be hard on the ears.
