There they set up false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking against this holy place and against the Torah; for we have heard him say that Yeshua from Natzeret will destroy this place and will change the customs Moshe handed down to us.”
If the false witnesses lied that Messiah’s purposr was to destroy the Temple and change the customs handed down by Moshe, then that must mean that they knew that was not his true and they gave false testimony. So then what was Messiah’s message and goal? To maintain the customs from Moshe and the Temple. For a liar to slander someone they have to know the truth, then twist it. Believers should make straight that which has become twisted.
