its the intent that makes it a lie or not a lie
If you did not volunteer info ,,or altered the info by purposely leaving parts out ,you know your intent ,and if its a lie ,its sin
To know to do ,but still not do it ,,as withholding details to alter the truth
Then its still a lie and also willful sin

A liar is a liar no matter how you spin it
The fallen angel quotes scripture ,,but its the parts he leaves out that shows its altered truth ,,as a lie ,he is the father of lies

He did not give Eve fruit ,he taught her why she was told to avoid him
And she was ashamed suddenly ashamed and now knew she was naked
She lied to Adam and got him to try it out too
Guess who got the blame ,,,God for making a lonely man a wife ,,go figure
Now see how far the results of that lie has grown ?

Now today we don't think anything is wrong with lying
Sins of the father passed on to the third and fourth generation until
"What is the truth "?

We all strive for truth but everyone lies at some point

"The Boy Who Cried Wolf"

if you're going to lie, make it so outrageous that no one believes you
