What Is Truth?

Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” John 8:31-32 NRSV

If you continue in my word. What? Who is the Word? Jesus the Christ!

... and you will know the truth. What? Who is the truth? Jesus is the Truth!  "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"  John 14:6

...and the truth will make you free. What? Who will make you free? Jesus who is the Word and who is the Truth will set you free.

Abide in him, continue in his word, so that you might know the truth that will set you free. The Truth will set you free from the bondage to sin, death and the power of the devil. You, as a disciple of Jesus Christ, will be able to live free from all fear; with the courage and strength to follow in the way that Jesus leads you. 

Disciples of Jesus the Christ, may you believe the truth that you are a child of God, freed from all worldly powers that would seek to destroy you.

God's Peace - Pr. J
