Proverbs 19:9 (NASB) says, “A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who speaks lies shall perish.”
A Christian shouldn’t tell lies. Colossians 3:9 says, “Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds.” Telling lies is inconsistent with your nature as a new creation in Christ. You’re a man or woman of truth because you’re the offspring of truth: “Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures” (James 1:18).
Lying is one of the cardinal attributes of Satan. In John 8:44, the Lord Jesus aptly described Satan when He said, “… He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it” (NKJV).
The Word of God is truth (John 17:17). And the Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Truth (John 16:13). Now, a liar isn’t merely someone who told a lie but one who loves and makes a lie; he constructs lies (Revelation 22:15); he plans or strategises his lies. He knows what he is doing is wrong, but he still goes ahead and does it for selfish reasons. A liar is also one who speaks contrary to God’s Word. As long as a man’s confessions are inconsistent with God’s Word, they’re lies.
1 Peter 3:10 RSV reveals something instructive; it says, “…He that would love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking guile.” To speak guile is to speak in antithesis to the Word. The Bible says, “… Put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness” (Ephesians 4:24). Now that you’re in Christ, you’ve put on the new man; you have the God-nature. Act accordingly. Speak the truth always.
