"One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, his axe fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"

 

 

The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, and he needed the axe to make his living.

 

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

 

The woodcutter replied, "No."

 

The Lord again went down and came up with a silver Axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

 

Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."

 

The Lord went down again and came up with an iron Axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

 

The woodcutter replied, "Yes."

The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home happy.

 

Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the riverbank, and his wife fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?"

 

"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"

 

The Lord went down into the water and came up with ANGELINA JOLIE "Is this your wife?" the Lord asked.

 

"Yes," cried the woodcutter.

 

The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"

 

The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to ANGELINA JOLIE , You would have come up with CAMERON DIAZ . Then if I said 'no' to her, you would have come up with my wife. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take care

of all three wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to ANGELINA JOLIE ."

 

The moral of this story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable reason, and for the benefit of others.

Sure thing, if I ever told my girlfriend how much I cheat on her, she would get really angry and get all wrinkles and stuff. I better keep it quiet.

lol good stuff. Ive heard that before... more or less anyway. In all honesty, I actually think I do lie for the good of others, while it does relfect on me, it generally is to spare feelings. but we've seen so many times on corny sit coms, sparin feelings only makes things worse in the end. lol

Hehe, the problem is that God knows your motives behind every actions and MOTIVES are the only thing that matter. If you lie sometimes but your motives really are good then you did something good and not something bad. Here is a nice example that clears things up.

 

Ok in bible there is this rule DON'T LIE! BUT I think that your motive for lying is the only thing important!

 

Imagine WWII and a guy comes to you asking if you could hide him in the basement, because Germans will kill him if they find him! You say Yes, ok and hide him but after a few hours Germans come to your door knocking and asking if you have seen that man?!?!

 

NOW HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

 

Should I tell the truth and KILL this guy with my action or should I say NO and spare his life?????

 

Of course the GOOD thing to do would be to lie and to say you have never seen this guy before - your motive was to spare a life of a human being so you did a good thing and you will be rewarded for it and certainly not punished as that wouldn't be fair at all!

 

 

You see where I am going?? It is the MOTIVE behind your every lie, action and everything else, that determines wether you did something good or something bad!

Lol... really good, haha, but what if the lord had something different planned this time? Like maybe not giving him all three but maybe letting him keep his wife and save the other 2 from drowning or giving him some money or more axes..?
