Definition: a verified or indisputable fact, proposition, principle
Truth is not relative - it is absolute. For it to be absolute there must be a guarantor. The Lord is the guarantor of Truth.
The Bible, is the written Truth.
Jesus, is the living Truth.
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit Of Truth.
The Truth about what? → our Creator
→ our purpose
→ our acceptance
→ our potential
→ our future
→ His love
Any notion that a person may have regarding Truth must have its foundation in God`s Word - the bible and Jesus.
Otherwise the notion, however reasonable or popular, is error.
The Bible puts it this way:
There is a way which seems right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. |
There are many popular ideas that are in error:
- women have a right to kill the unborn - abortion
- sexual perversion is OK - homosexuality
- stealing by proxy is OK - entitlements
- scales will be used in The Judgment - salvation
- we are All God`s children - newbirth
- dogs are people too - animals
- profiling is wrong - The Judgment
Jesus is the Truth. His Word speaks to the Truth.
Pilate therefore said unto him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice. |
Study to show yourself approved unto the Lord, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.  |
And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. |
Honesty is a by-product of having received the Truth.
The spirit of lying that is dominating public life is evidence that the truth is not in people`s lives.
There is no reason to be frustrated with the lying and the liars. A liar lies. That is who they are.
The only way a liar can change is to accept the Truth.
So, we should simply see lying as a signal for us to share the Truth with them.

We have been fed a lie for 55 years - that there is more than one Truth.
The reality is that there is only one Truth - Christ Jesus. Outside of Him is darkness. When you are in the dark you call evil good and good evil.
Jesus said you will know the tree by its fruit. See the lost as who they are - people who need Christ.
Hearing and receiving the Truth brings repentance, and repentance enables Christ to make a New Spirit being of us. |
