   That statement is a lie, and the Bible clearly exposes and refutes it:   
      
         “Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all   
          power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness   
          of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received   
          not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for   
          this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should   
          believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not   
          the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” (2   
          Thessalonians 2:9–12, KJV 1900)   
      
   Note: It says these people who reject the truth will "believe a lie".   
   God still calls it a "lie", even though they "believe" it to be true.   
   Intent determines personal guilt for lying. Truth determines whether a   
   claim stands or falls. A falsehood remains a lie even when sincerely   
   believed.   
      
   --   
   Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God   
   raised Him from the dead?   
      
   That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death   
   penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death   
   satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John   
   2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your   
   sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.   
      
   On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on   
   the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name   
   of the Lord will be saved'" (Romans 10:13, ESV).
