There is no reason to believe that Paul lied about seeing Jesus. He did say that he had seen Jesus, last of all, but it appears that Paul had seen a vision or a dream in which he felt he had communicated with Jesus. Some scholars say that Paul believed that Peter, James, the twelve and the apostles, as well as the 500, had all only seen the risen Jesus in visions or dreams. Thus he equated his experience with that of the others.

What role did Jesus and Paul play in the early history of Christianity?
Apart from their obvious roles as Messiah and Apostle, scholars have long debated the apparent mismatch between the teachings of Jesus and Paul. One normal way of stating it is that Jesus preached about God but Paul preached about Jesus. Or, Jesus announced the kingdom of God and Paul announced the Messiahship of Jesus. Also, Jesus called people to a simple gospel of repentance, belief, and the practice of the Sermon on the Mount while Paul developed a complex theology of justification by faith, something Jesus never mentioned. Some say that Jesus preached a wonderful universal message and that Paul scrunched it back into the small distorting framework of his Jewish, rabbinic mind. Others say that Jesus preached a pure Jewish message and that Paul falsified it by turning it into a Greek, philosophical and even anti-Jewish construct. In defense of Paul here, he thought of it this way: Jesus was the Composer and he was the conductor or Jesus was the Architect and he was the builder. Paul was explicitly honouring Jesus by not saying and doing the same things but by pointing people back to Jesus' own unique achievement.
