Truth. What is it anyway?

Is it relative?
Is it subjective?
Or, does everyone just have their own personal truth?

But what if I said that knowing the truth, would set you free?
Would you still call it “Relative”?
If I told you that the truth was a “Who” and not a “What.”
Would you still think it “Subjective”?
If I said that the one thing, the ONE THING in life that remains constant is the truth,
would you still think it changes from person to person?

Truth has a name. Truth is a person. Truth is a creator.
He said the word, and there was light.
He laid the foundations of the earth.
He set the world in motion and called the universe to order.
He strew the stars in the sky and He made the fish in the sea.
The splendor, the majesty, the art, the design you see around you every day, He created
them all.
Every single “Wow.” Every single “Oh my word!” Every single “It’s
so beautiful I could cry!” Every single one of these moments are made by Him.

In Him there is no deceit.
In Him there is healing – “By His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5)

In Him there is comfort – “Blessed be the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God” (2 Corinthians 1:3-4)

In Him there is no anxiety – “Cast your cares on Him for He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7)

In Him there is rest – “Come to me all you who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28)

In Him there is no fear – “Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by your name, you are mine!” (Isaiah 43:1)

This Truth. He is the silencer of every lie.

“You have no identity of your own!”
– “But as many as received Him, He gave to them authority to be children of God – To those believing in His name” (John 1:12)

“Ha! You don’t have a life. You are such a loser!”
– “The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy. But I have come that they may have life and have it abundantly!” (John 10:10)

Truth fought the ultimate war.
Truth made the perfect sacrifice.
Truth redeemed us from the clutches of death
Truth offered us eternal life.
Truth broke the power of sin.
Truth defeated the authority of the grave.
Truth saw His betrayer yet called him “Friend.”
Truth saw a thief yet called him “Son.”
Truth saw His offenders yet called them “Forgiven”
Truth saw a hefty price yet cried, “It is finished!”
Truth saw me, a wretch, yet said, “She’s worth it.”
Truth slayed a Victor.
Truth raised a Savior!

Truth alone stands the test of time.
Truth alone stands the test of relevance.
Truth alone stands the test of culture.
From generation to generation, from century to century, from decade to decade, from year to year, truth remains constant. He does not change.

He is the same yesterday, today and forever more!
He was a healer then, He is still a healer today.
He was a comforter then, He is still a comforter today.
He was a provider then, He is still a provider today.
He was a restorer then, He is still a restorer today.
He was a redeemer then, He is still a redeemer today.
Truth made a way then, truth will make a way now.
Truth NEVER changes.

Truth is the Alpha and the Omega.
He is the beginning and the end.
He is the first and the last.
He was and is and is to come.
He is the promised messiah.
He is the covenant kept.
He is the bread of life.
He is the true vine.
He is the prince of peace.
He is light of the world.
He is everlasting life.
He is the great I am!
Truth has a name. His name is JESUS!

In closing I must say, I lift my eyes up, my help comes from the Lord!
