The Truth
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Philippians 4:8
The world says there are no absolute truths. Rather, whatever you believe to be true is true. This is especially dangerous in the church. The only absolute truth is whatever God declares In scripture. Test everything against God’s holy word.
“In a word, truth means reality. It is the way anything truly is. Truth is not how things may appear to be. It is not what the majority of people conjecture truth to be. It is not even what we may want something to be. Truth is whatever God says is reality. Truth is whatever conforms to the mind and character of God.” - Steven Lawson
