“For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?”
Someone might argue, 'If my falsehood enhances God's truthfulness and so increases his glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?' The sophist's objection: if my lie advances God's truth, why am I guilty? This represents the ultimate perversion of grace—treating sin as a necessary ingredient in God's glory. The question anticipated reveals the depths of antinomian reasoning.
