Revenge and False Accusations
Consider the following:
Have you ever been falsely accused of anything? What are the reasons people seek revenge upon others? Have you ever admitted to something you didn't do for the good of the whole? Have you ever admitted to something to save someone else? Would you? Have you ever lied to protect yourself? Why? Were there any repercussions to your lies?
Answer some of these prompts with thoughtful reflection. Remember, two sentences does not equal a response.

The first thing that comes to mind about being falsely accused of something is my brother and simple sibling rivalry. Multiple times I have admitted to doing something I didn't do just for the good of a group I care about. That goes the same for being very willing to admitt to something to save someone I care deeply about. I really believe that there are always going to be repurcussions for lies; everything we do has consequences. Although cliche, I can't help but agree that everything comes out in the wash.
There are many things that i probably been accused of, some i know some i may not. Most of the time i would take the rap for it just to get it over with unless it was something really bad. There are also many other things i would take the blame for just so that one of my friends didn't get in trouble, like maybe if he had broken something and there parents would just go off on them i would. Most of the time i do not lie because i don't think its right, but if i really needed to i would. The only reason i whould like is to not hurt someone or get some one hurt. Even when i do lie i make sure that there will be no other problems that arise from the lie.
I am sure i have been falsely accused before but i have managed to forget any specific situations. I know how frustrating it is and how harsh it feels when no one will believe you even though you are right. If only someone would listen then things would turn out fine but no one does. I have lied before to protect myself but i have also lied for a friend in order to protect them. It isn't always the best thing to do but when you do take responsibility for things you did not do then you manage to take the burden from the culprit. It isn't the right thing to do but it is often easier if you don't get caught in the lie itself.
I have been falsely accused before. The reason people seek revenge is becuase they have no logical way to react to a problem. The closest thing to a logical solution, is to harm, in some form, the person that caused this problem. I have lied to protect a group before. If my punishment would stay the same whether or not it was a team act, why shouldn't someone get out of it. The only repercussion was that friends and others look at me as a classy person who they can trust.
yes, i have been falsely accused by other people. And it felt really bad when people think you did something when you eally didn't. When i think of revenge, it sounds really good and yes i have taken revenge on people but after i did it it did not feel godd at all! i have also taken the blame for others because i didn't want them to get in trouble. but people have done the same for me as well. even though lying is bad, i have lied to not get into trouble. i did this because i thought i could lie enough for them not to find out and so i don't seem like a bad person. But eventually i got caught and that was the bad part! but decieving people or taking revenge is not good, it is part of our sin nature so we will always do it.
