Why do you think the couple that lied about their gift of the land price to the Church --fell down and took their last breath in front of Peter and the Apostles?

Where was the forgiveness?

Annias and Sapphira were lying to and about the Holy Spirit. A great offense, with great consequences. My earthly father loved me very much, but when i was disrespectful and rude to my mother, he QUICKLY let me know the difference between my mom and HIS wife.
Not that it was til death, but the msg. was there.
They blasphemed the Holy Spirit, from which there is no forgiveness. It is the unpardonable sin.

Christianity is supposed to be about forgiveness and love, but it's full of contradictions and it's based on the old testament (unforgiving God).

All sins have consequenses!!!! A lot of people leave this religion because they are weak, Christianity is for the stronghearted. It takes a real man to love Jesus!!!!!!!

Because they didn't lie to men, they lied to God. It's explained in the passage...
