But, according to the Bible, he deliberately intervenes to make people believe lies, and to cause people to lie. God uses lying behaviour to further his purposes, which is the moral equivalent of suborning perjury.
You really need to give the atheist websites a break and actually read the Bible for yourself rather than one or two verses. God never lies in any of those verses; He tells King Ahab the truth through his true prophet Micaiah. He tells Ahab that all of his other prophets have been deceived (by a spirit not by God) and that Ahab must listen to Micaiah, but Ahab refuses, listens to the deceived prophets, and is subsequently destroyed in battle. God never lies.

Your understanding of scripture is downright scary at times. Jesus never promised that his second coming would occur during the lifetimes of the disciples.

Waldork is often like a clown with his presuppositionalism but at least I do find him challenging, even thought provoking, once in a great while. You on the other hand are a tiny bug that I never break a sweat over swatting. You've never offered anything of substance that I'm aware of. Frankly, I sometimes suspect you're just a troll.

Is this supposed to be analogous to something Christians believe? If so, you lost me.

What? You don’t believe that the historical Jesus existed? Really?

We've seen yours that says jesus was a god and think it is fucking absurd.
How is what you think at all relevant to the topic?

As for the book, I will physically make one, just so we can demonstrate how fucking stupid your objection here is.
Why such hostility? We’re all friends here.
