When the Lord Jesus called the Jews “liars,” He was not referring to their physical lives but to their spiritual condition. They insisted that they knew the one true God, but the truth was that they did not.

That is why He called them liars: they refused to accept the truth that, because they did not know the one true God, they remained spiritually blind and unable to see.
JOHN 9:40-41
40 And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

And the Lord Jesus confirms Ecclesiastes 1:9 and Matthew 24:35.
There are people today who insist that they know the one true God.
However, they have not been given the sight to recognize that the events described in the Old and New Testaments continue to unfold.

You don’t want to be called a liar. You say that you believe in the Lord Jesus. Yet here is a very simple command from the Lord: “Work out your own salvation,” and you cannot even do that.
Where is the faith in the Lord Jesus that you claim to have?
PHILLIPIANS 2:12
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

Why don’t you just speak for yourself instead of dragging other visitors into this?
Besides, it’s just the two of us talking. Why are you suddenly involving them in our conversation?
Are you afraid to face the truth on your own, so you seek the sympathy of others just to have someone on your side?

But Jesus calling people who didn't believe in Him liars is quite different from you calling other posters here on Christian Chat liars. Jesus Christ as fully God, knew men's hearts. You don't. Just because I don't agree with your very unusual interpretations of Scripture, that doesn't make me a liar.

It is not a matter of whether I want to be called a liar or not, but whether you can possibly know whether I tell lies or not. Give me just one example of me telling a lie. (And it is not lying to say that I don't agree with your interpretations of the Bible).
