  According to the Bible itself, God and Jesus lied many times:
  
  God lied about snakes eating dust (Genesis 3:14).
  
 God lied when saying that Jacob would no longer be called Jacob (Genesis 32:28), because he later called him Jacob himself (Genesis 46:2).
  
  God lied when he said that bats are birds (Leviticus 11:11-19).

  God lied when he said insects have four legs (Leviticus 11:23).
  
 God lied when he said that Abraham didn't know the name Jehovah (Exodus 6:3), because Abraham named a place after Jehovah (Genesis 22:14).
  
 God lied when he said that he did not give instructions for burnt offerings (Jeremiah 7:22), because he gave many instructions in Exodus.
  
 God lied when he said that the city of Tyre would be destroyed and never inhabited again (Ezekiel 26:21). It's now the fourth largest city in Lebanon:

  Jesus lied about mustard having the smallest seeds in the world and about them producing trees (Matthew 13:31-32, Mark 4:31).
  
  Jesus lied when he said that no one asked him where he was going (John 16:5), because Peter asked him (John 13:36).
