The
art of life is to show your hand. There is no diplomacy like candor.
You may lose by it now and then, but it will be a loss well gained
if you do. Nothing is so boring as having to keep up a deception.
--E. V. Lucas
Beware of altruism. It is based on self-deception, the root of all
evil.
--Excerpt from the notebooks of Lazarus Long, from Robert Heinlein's
"Time Enough for Love"
The only charm of marriage is that it makes a life of deception
necessary for both parties.
--Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)
I don’t think this movie could have been made if people
didn’t sneak around behind each others’ backs to find
out “answers.” Hundreds of thousands of private investigators
are employed each year by peoples’ lack of trust in one
another. However, that doesn’t change the importance of
choosing higher ground. It is important for each of us to choose
the noblest action and walk with integrity when it comes to dealing
with other human beings. Lies and deceptions will make themselves
known without our help. And then there’s prayer… I
believe God answers prayer. If someone believes a partner or teenage
child is lying, it is better to pray that God reveal the truth
than to dirty our own hands for quick answers. Here are some thoughts
from the Word.

Peter 1:14 – As obedient children, do not conform to the
evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as
he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is
written: “Be Holy, because I am holy.”
1
Peter 2:21 & 22 – To this you were called, because Christ
suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow
in his steps. “He committed no sin, and no deceit was found
in his mouth.”
James
5:16 – The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
1
Thess. 5:22-24 – Avoid every kind of evil. May God himself,
the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole
spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful and he will do
it.
