37 But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.


What do you think about the word: pretence? Why do people pretend?

Why do people pretend? Are we not giving false impression of a real situation by our attitude. Once you 'pretend'... you are making someone believe something that is not really the truth. Is that not creating false impression...



Is pretence not a sin?
 
1.:D Hello, Luke, can you hear me? I need to talk to you.
:)Luke continues moving.
:DThe caller believes Luke didn't hear him.
:)He really did.

2. :DHave we met before? You look like my classmate? Did you school in Italy?

:)Italy? What is Italy? (He walks away thinking he met the wrong guy. Yet he knows him. They schooled in Italy)

3. :DWho's there? Is any of you awake? I need someone to help me operate the motor.
:) Nick shuts his eyes and deliberately stopped moving his body.
:D They are all asleep. I will do it alone:sad He walks away
:) Nick smiles and continues reading his novel.

A footstep was heard near the door later. Nick drops the book and shuts his eyes again:lol



etc :lol

both males and females pretend a lot.
Outward appearance!!! Wow!

For women everything is pretence: hair, lipstick applied, eyebrows, nails, etc... (some guys too)
 
Pretense is one's own downfall. A falsehood will only come back around to bite you on the butt. :shocked! I truly believe in this saying, "what goes around comes around" so treat others as you would like to be treated.
