These days many people believe each can have their own truth. That contradicts what God says. The Bible is God’s Word to us. It is called the Word of truth. (Jon 17:17) God is not a man that He should lie. (Numbers23:19) God is TRUTH. God sent His Son Jesus Christ to show the Truth. John 1:14 says, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.”
As we accept Jesus, the Way, the TRUTH and the Life as our personal Savior, God’s Holy Spirit comes to reside in us. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. John 16:13
Nonbelievers need the Truth. Believers need the Truth. The Truth is what sets us free. Free from sin’s hold on us. John 8:31-32 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Abide means to accept and act in accordance with. To abide is to settle into God’s Word as TRUTH and live by it. That’s where you live, in God’s Word and by God’s Word. There is one God and He is a God of Truth. God transforms us from the inside out with Truth. Truth through our spirit permeating through our soul (mind, will, emotions) and manifesting through our outward actions. There is only one truth and that truth is in God. He changes us. We don’t change God or what He says to fit what we think. The more we know Truth, the more we know God.
God is not only Truth but He is love and mercy and grace and faithfulness and longsuffering. He is good. Let me say that again. GOD is GOOD. Truth is good. He LOVES us. He will always tell us the truth. When the truth of who God is and His character is evident it will give a sense of security and acceptance you’ve never known. The Truth is that He is for you not against you. You can step by step be set free by TRUTH and live a grace-empowered life because of His great love for you.
