We praise Oskar Schindler for lying to the Nazis to save his Jewish employees from murder.

We praise Williams Wilberforce for using deception to pass a law that ultimately ended the slave trade.

It's perfectly ok for the SCOTUS judges to lie under oath as to their ultimate intentions for roe v wade. In due time, they will be praised by the public just like the others for saving millions of lives of innocent people.

And if they aren't, they will receive praise from their Father in heaven.

Its not ok to lie to Congress, but nobody lied. Kavanaugh and Gorsuch said Roe was settled precedent. They never said they would not overturn it. Susan Collins was the only person in America surprised by their votes.

Found this. It seems self serving lies and bearing false witness against a neighbor are contextually the lies God hates.

Exd. 1:15-22: The midwives feared God, and therefore let the boys live and lied to Pharaoh about the circumstances. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Ps 11:10, Prov. 1:7).

God blessed the midwives and gave them families because they feared Him.

2Kings 10:18-31: Jehu deceives the prophets of Baal by pretending to be a Baal worshiper and summoning all the prophets. He then has his men kill all of them, tear down the temple, and demolished the statue of Baal.

God commended him in this instance and did not admonish him for his deception.

Exd. 5:1, 8:20-28: God and Moses both know that the plan is for pharaoh to drive the Israelites from the country but God has Moses only give Pharaoh the repeated command to allow the people to go worship at a temporary festival.

1 Sam. 16:1-13: God tells Samuel how to mislead Saul and say he's going to make a sacrifice and omit his going to anoint a new king.

2 Chron. 18:18-22: God asks for someone to entice Ahab to war, then gives permission to a deceiving spirit to deceive Ahab's prophets.

Josh. 2: 1-15, Josh. 6:25, Jam. 2:25: Rahab is considered righteous for hiding the spies and sending them off a different way, deceiving their pursuers.

Judges 4:18-22: Jael promises safety and rest to Sisera, then murders him, thus receiving the glory for the victory.

John 7: 6-10: Jesus tells his brothers he isn't going to the festival, then goes later in secret.
