Petty lies:
Some people are predestined to go to heaven and others are predestined to go to hell.

God created men superior to women.

Men and women are equal and so their roles in family are interchangeable or the same.

The devil is destroying the land and produce; it is not because of our sin.

Man was made to take care of creation.

Some people are created as superior to others.

God wants to unite the whole world into one tongue, preferably English or Hindi, or maybe Chinese to make it easy to spread the gospel.

Some work is more important than the other. And the most important work is Christian ministry work. ( Truth: It is not what we do, but why we do that determines whether our work is sacred or secular)
