When the various orders of life no longer respect one another, words become untrue. i.e, a Teacher asks a child in front of the class whether it is true that his mother is a commercial sex worker and often comes home drunk. It is true but the child denies it. The teacher question has placed him in a situation for which he is not yet prepared. He feels only that what is taken place is an unjustified interference in the order of the family and that he must oppose it. What goes on in the family is not for ears of the class in school. As the family has its secret and must preserve it, which the teacher has failed to respect. As a simple no to the teacher’s question, the child’s answer is certainly untrue; the child’s answer can indeed be called a lie; yet this lie contains more truth. In accordance with Bible principles, was it realistic if the child had betrayed his mother’s weakness in front of the class, by saying yes to the teacher question?
