A condition of the fall is we lie, we tell falsehoods. In our social spears today this is almost typical, expected. We don't show people what is real, we sugar coat it, or we cover the blemishes so we appear different than we really are.
But why?
The heart of the matter is we have an idea of what is good, what is perfect, what is righteous... and the fact is we are not. We are none of these things, we are not good, we are not perfect, and we are not righteous.
In the Bible we see the first lie was Satan deceiving Eve, "you will be like God". Even bought the lie, but she rejected the truth. Adam also took the lie, and rejected God's word.
When God came into the garden where Adam and Eve were and he found them covered with for leaves. They had already bought the lie. They became the lie.
There is truth in the world and there are likes. Unlike teaching of this world, relative truth is a lie.
We must keep our focus on what is true and what is right.
