The Truth About Truth

What exactly is a lie? I mean, I know that it is not telling the truth, and that it is a "no-no" in the scriptures, but are there certain "lies" that are okay to tell? For example, if you are having a surprise party for a friend or family member, and you can't tell the person about it or say that there isn't going to be a party to conceal it, is that okay? And if you are joke-lying or being sarcastic or something, is that okay or should you avoid all of those things completely?

This is a hard question to answer and honestly I'm wondering the answer myself... Why don't you bring this to the Google Groups page so we can discuss it.
