Is it ever right to lie?

Some believe it is, particularly when protecting an innocent victim from an oppressor. Some believe it is never right to lie. 

What does the Bible say about this issue?

Here is one comment on this series:

I just re-read your blog posts “Is it ever right to lie” and while I didn't come to the same conclusions as you did, I appreciate how much thought you put into them and the logical reasoning you used. It's refreshing to see something like this laid out in coherent thought. (David T., USA)
