How do we know that God is disgusted with lies?

Answered in 1 source

We know God is disgusted with lies because His Word explicitly states that lying lips are an abomination to Him.

God's disgust with lies is clearly articulated in Scripture, specifically in Proverbs 12:22, which directly states that 'lying lips are abomination to the Lord.' This phrase indicates that God reacts strongly against dishonesty. Furthermore, the origins of lying can be traced back to Genesis, when the serpent deceived Eve with falsehoods. This act of lying not only contradicted God's command but also initiated humanity’s fall into sin. Jesus reiterates this sentiment in John 8:44 by labeling the devil as the father of lies, underscoring that any deviation from God's truth is not only sinful but also evokes His disgust.
