What is Truth

*_WHAT IS TRUTH?_*


Truth is a concept that has been debated for centuries, and it’s no surprise that in today’s world, we often find ourselves confused about what truth really is. There are so many different ideas about what’s true and what’s not, and it can be hard to know what to believe. Moral relativism is a common idea that is thrown around, which says that what is true for one person may not be true for another. This can make it seem like there’s no truth that applies to everyone, which can be quite unsettling.


*_So What Is Truth, Really?_*


The Bible sheds some light on the question. When Jesus was talking to His believers, He described why truth is important because of what it can do for us. He said, “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). When we know the truth, we are free from confusion, worry and fear. We are free to live our lives with purpose and meaning, knowing that we are following the path that God has set before us.


*_But Where Is The Path?_*


Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). Jesus is not just one of many paths to truth; He is the only way to find real, lasting truth. This means that when we put our trust in Jesus, we can know for sure that we are on the right path, and we can be confident in what we believe.


*_How Do I Know This Is True?_*


The Bible describes what God says like this, “The very essence of your words is truth; all your just regulations will stand forever” (Psalm 119:160). This reinforces the idea that truth is not something that changes with time or society’s values but is something that is forever and unchanging. The truth found in God’s Word is something that we can rely on and trust in. What is true in the Bible is also true in reality.


Many people in society try to bury what they know is right, so it’s important that we hold fast to the truth found in Jesus Christ. Go seek it with an open heart and mind.

  I Will Build My Church – Matthew 16:13-19   We are living at a very crucial time when it appears the devil has taken over the stage. All over the world, news of crises and criminal activities pervade the whole atmosphere. For those who have the spiritual insight and understanding of time, the whole arsenal of the devil is directed at the church moreso, when the coming of the Lord is nearer than before. Nevertheless, the plan and purpose of God cannot but come to pass. The Lord’s words cannot go out without being fulfilled that “…I will build my Church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”. Amen.   The church, that is, the Body of Christ, does not belong to anybody hence; Jesus said “…I will build my church…” No man or woman who has by His grace become, a building block and precious stone in the Body of Christ, can lay claim to the church. We have become a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that we should show...
