Truth

[Soyeong]

What is truth?

All I can make of it is,

Truth is like a dove that comes with healing under it,s wings.

Or what do others make of it?

Psalms 119:142 Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, And Your law is truth.

John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

The question that I keep asking is once one goes through Jesus and onto the Father, what does one find there? And what is brought back?

I liked all your posts and thank you all for replies

One question,
For me it is as a dove with healing under it,s wings,

But is not a dove timid?

Can we cause it to to take a few steps away,
or even flutter a little and rest a bit away.

I have noticed it is so with a pidgeon.

On one occasion I was alone and ill, and too weak for anything.

The Words came and were gentle and .......well, I was soon thereafter back at work.

At the time my neighbours were about 200 sheep.

They were always fun it seemed like they undersood,
about the only ones who understood me, haha.

This is an excellent question. Best ever.

Meek, not timid perhaps.

Sounds like me upon hearing the soft whispering voice of the ever present Divine reaching out to me.

Truth cannot die.
How can one then tell others, that the one who calls himself the truth, died?

Truth cannot die, nor a person who is one with truth, dies.

They pass on.

Their bodies may be buried and we must mourn,
but that is only part of this worlds falseness.

Good question.
Think on this.
Sin requires sacrifice , death.
Someone had to die for you/us/ everyone who might live.
Either we die for our self, or someone else died for us.

You can make it sound as good and soft as it could.
But the "truth" is: Whatever God says, is the truth.
There is absolutely no other workable options.

Has God spoken to you?

Think on this,
sin requires confession by and through your lips,
If He were hungry He woud not tell,
every creature is His.

A workable option...
What ever God "IS", is Truth.

It's an odd thought that Truth can die.
Truth is the very foundation of all of the Cosmos.
When Truth dies, existence itSelf dies.

Good observation to bring up and question.
Keep Pursuing this, yes, for the answer is necessary for life.

Truth...The question was asked,
answers are popping up.
like this for instance...

The Soul of all is one Soul
and Truth is one Truth
under whatever religion
it is hidden.

God speaks through His Scripture.

 

[Dave-W]

"None of us are going to get out of this place alive"
True or false?

False.

1 Cor 15. 51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, [die] but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.​

 

[Dave-W]

God speaks through His Scripture.

And in person as well.

"Today if you hear HIS voice ..." Hebrews 3.7; 3.15; 4.7 quoting Psalm 95.7.

Romans 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the [rhema = spoken] word of God.

God speaks through His Scripture.

Given the multitude of denominations and widely varying interpretations of the same scripture, this would seem to have been a very poor choice.

 

[Hawkins]

Given the multitude of denominations and widely varying interpretations of the same scripture, this would seem to have been a very poor choice.

More denominations actually facilitates the effect of attracting more souls. It is because today's humans all think that they are scientifically, rationally, critically equipped. Their minds are so varied that you can't fit them all into a single denomination. So more denominations provide them with a better chance to find one suit their minds, as long as you only have one salvation message.

To put it another way, denominations are different views in terms of knowledge. They maintain the same salvation message or power to save, which can basically be identified by the faith statements in Apostle's Creed. If on the other hand if it's a deviation in the message of salvation, then it's a heresy.
