What is a lie?

Religion today tells us that we should repent of our sins and ask God for forgiveness and we will have eternal life in Heaven with Christ....because Jesus died for our sins. This is true. However, even our law states we should tell "the truth, the WHOLE truth, and nothing but the truth". To leave out a part...is deception...the anatomy of a lie. It is true that we should repent of our sins but the true meaning of repent is to turn away from our sins...to never return to them again. A life free from sin? Is that what that means? Yes.

Christ died for our sins. We cannot hang Him back on the cross again and again...he died only once. That tells us that we should no longer commit sin...because we have no more sacrifice for them. (Hebrews 10:26)
