Wow guys, as a liar and a prostitute myself i understand it this way, we can't change the bodily nature because sin took effect primarily on that area, but we still got the soul and the spirit, which aligned with the Holy Spirit of YHWH can lead us to avoiding sin and wrongdoings thereafter...Thus the body will perish anyway, but the soul & spirit will have a place of its own, right? I mean, i will always prefer lying and practicing lasciviousness but prudence and leaning on the Spirit may keep me away from it, to guide me to the better ways of The Great God, something like that.
Liars Are Born That Way

I understand your train of thought but find error in some assessments. It’s not that people are stupid but what some choose to blindly believe sets them up for misunderstanding scripture. We all agree King David had the gift of prophecy. That doesn’t mean everything written by him was prophetic and infallible. The Psalms are songs. Songs are written and performed to encapsulate thoughts and emotions from within the artist and communicate them through music and verse. When doing that the artist uses imagery, relatability and exaggeration. As far as being a liar from birth, we all have capacity for sin. Most habits and behaviours are taught or learned, not inherent.
In direct response to this post, fear/reverence to God is the beginning of wisdom. Anybody who challenges the logic of God is clearly too egocentric to desire singularity in the Body of Christ. God is a patient Father. He isn’t the irrational parent who, when questioned, barks, “Because I said so!” If questioned He will answer in a way that teaches and breeds confidence that He is in control of the big picture..

Well; I think we can be fairly certain that dishonesty neither exists nor is
practiced in Heaven's society; which is a curious thing because the Bible
says that every man is dishonest; so the question is; How does anybody at
all make the cut? I mean; if people were dishonest down here, then would
they not continue to be dishonest up there? And what about CarlosLSNN's
preference for lasciviousness?
• Rev 21:8 . .The sexually immoral and all liars-- their place will be in the
fiery lake of burning sulfur.
God has devised a way to rid people of themselves by means of a special
circumcision.
• Col 2:11-12 . . In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the
sinful nature-- not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with
the circumcision done by Christ --having been buried with him in baptism
and raised with him through your faith in the power of God, who raised him
from the dead.
In a nutshell: although believing liars typically continue to be dishonest
down here, they don't take that proclivity with them when they pass on;
instead, the special circumcision makes it possible for them to part company
with their unacceptable tendencies and they go into eternity completely free
of human nature's weaknesses.
