What are the facts and captions and timelines regarding that picture.
So far the only timeline I have seen is Wii's?
1. There were posts on (facebook or twitter) regarding his ministry at the UN.
2. He then posted a picture that he labeled service which was actually a picture of a service that wasn't his. And really it all depends on context at this point. Was he posting this picture and making it clear that it wasn't his service? Or did he post the picture with no indicators that it wasn't of his service?
3. The next year a video that included highlights of his ministry was produced and that same picture was shown in that video. Was that picture indicated as being just a picture of the building he was preaching at? Or was nothing again stated to imply that this picture wasn't of his service?
4. Sometime around a year after the picture was first posted someone discovered that it was actually not a picture of his service and posted this fact.
5. He then apologized for "posting a picture" to show the church building where he was having his services at and stating that he realized that was a mistake?
Can you fill in the details and the few questions I have left and/or tell me where this timeline is wrong?

It seems to me that the problem with this picture comes from a lack of being clear and upfront with the first posting of it. Was that lack of clarity and lack of upfrontness done with an intent to deceive. I say only God knows the intent of the heart.
However, I do know it was very unwise to post pictures especially of events you were not actually a part of with little to no context about the picture being of a different event in the same venue you are in.
I do know that in hindsight it seems such a simply thing to say that he should have realized that people would interpret a picture on his social media labeled service in the context of other posts about him having services at the UN church to be a picture of his service and not of someone elses.
So I understand why Wii called him a liar. Most people get called liars when they omit details that anyone in a similar circumstance would have known should be included to bring clarity to the situation.
