Today's Daily Lesson comes from Luke chapter 16 verse 10:
"Whoever is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much; and whoever is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much."
It's not just the Big Lie, it's all the little lies that matter.
Stacked one on top of the other, it mounts like a ton of mud-made bricks. What's one more? What's the difference between our party and theirs? What do you expect? What is truth?
We've tolerated it for years. We've loved it ourselves. Our itching ears loved to hear false promises, wild conspiracies, and ugly innuendos.
It padded campaign coffers. And the ad men said it's what you have to do to win the election.
But pretty soon all the little lies add up. The mountain rises. And there is really no telling who will sit on top next.
But one thing is for sure, the bigger it gets the worse will be its fall.
And woe unto us when the whole thing falls -- which it will, eventually.
Ryon Price is Senior Pastor of Broadway Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas.
