Minute Activity

The Sourness of Lying

You will need something sour (a lemon or sourcandy, for example) and something sweet (asugar cube or sweet candy).

Tell your children that you are going to saysome things that are true about Acts 5 andsome things that are false. Each time you saysomething true, they take a lick of the sweet

candy, but each time you say something false,they take a lick of the sour candy.

Further, you can get a clear cup of water andanother of clear hand soap and show them howthey look the same, but God knows the differ-ence. In just the same way, we may think we arefooling people by telling a lie that looks true,but God knows the difference.
