Bible Texts:
John 3:16-21 KJV
16 For God so loved the world, that He
gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should
not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not His Son into the
world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be
saved.
18 He that believeth on Him is not
condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he
hath not believed in the name of The Only Begotten Son Of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that
Light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than
Light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil
hateth The Light, neither cometh to The Light, lest his deeds should
be reproved.
21 But he that doeth Truth cometh to
The Light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought
in God.
Liars, hate The Truth.
Lies have an origin.
John 8:44,45 KJV
44 Ye are of your father the
devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer
from the beginning, and abode not in The Truth, because there is no
Truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he
is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you The Truth,
ye believe me not.

9 For the law was not intended for
people who do what is right. It is for people who are lawless and
rebellious, who are ungodly and sinful, who consider nothing sacred
and defile what is holy, who kill their father or mother or commit
other murders.
10 The law is for people who are
sexually immoral, or who practice homosexuality, or are slave
traders, liars, promise breakers, or who do anything else that
contradicts the wholesome teaching
11 that comes from the glorious Good
News entrusted to me by our blessed God.

lie is of The Truth.
22 Who is a liar but he that
denieth that Jesus is The Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth

23 Whosoever denieth The Son, the
same hath not The Father: he that acknowledgeth The Son hath
The Father also.
I John 4:20 KJV
If a man say, I love God, and hateth
his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother

death.
26 And they shall bring the glory
and honor of the nations into it(Heavenly
