Jesus Lied (Jn7:1-10)
Jesus lied to his brothers that he was not going up to the feast, but when they left, he secretly went up there:
(Jn 7,1) After this, Jesus moved about within Galilee; but he did not wish to travel in Judea, because the Jews were trying to kill him. 2 But the Jewish feast of Tabernacles was near. 3 So his brothers said to him, Leave here and go to Judea, so that your disciples also may see the works you are doing. 4 No one works in secret if he wants to be known publicly. If you do these things, manifest yourself to the world. 5 For even his brothers did not believe in him. His own brothers did not believe that he was doing miracles and challenged him if he was really doing miracles let him do them publicly and not in secret. 6 So Jesus said to them, My time is not yet here, but the time is always right for you. 7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me, because I testify to it that its works are evil. 8 You go up to the feast. I am not going up to the feast, because my time has not been fulfilled. 9 After he had said this, he stayed on in Galilee. 10 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, he himself also went up, not openly but [as it were] in secret
Jesus lied to them that he was not going up to the feast, but when they left, he secretly went up there.
Christians quickly say that Jesus simply changed his mind. But according to scriptures, God does not lie nor change his mind:
Nu 23:19 God is not man that he should speak falsely, nor human, that he should change his mind. Is he one to speak and not act, to decree and not fulfill?
How could Jesus be God in flesh if he either lied or changed his mind?
