Precious Revealed Truth

Deutsch English

Truth is not only expressed in words. It is not discussed as in philosophy. It is not a concept. Truth: Reality, certainty, reality, loyalty, honesty, justice.

To the question, what is truth? There is a wealth of meanings in the Gospel of John. In the biblical understanding, truth exists as the reality of God. It can be experienced, revealed, experienced and done.

1. God the Father in His essence

God the Father is faithful and reliable in his nature and actions, in the implementation of his promise once given.

 they are established forever and ever, to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness.. Psalm 111:8 (ESV)

Of David. I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing your praise.  I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word. On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased. Psalm 138:1-3 (ESV)

2. Jesus Christ is the truth

He is true God and was true man through his being, through his word and through his work of redemption he has revealed and realized the perfect truth.

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.  John 1:14 (ESV)

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 (ESV)

3. The Holy Spirit of Truth

When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth.
John 16:13a (ESV)

Jesus continues his work of redemption through the Holy Spirit. Because only the Holy Spirit of truth can make God's salvation alive in Christ.


4. The truth makes free

Jesus says, "If you believe my words, you will know the truth, and it will set you free." Everyone who sins is a slave to sin. So if the Son sets you free, then you are truly free (according to John 8)


5. Experience of liberation

Jesus passed through Jericho with his disciples. Zacchaeus, a scoundrel and swindler, chief of the customs officers, lived there. He really wanted to see Jeus. So he climbed a mulberry tree. When Jesus saw him, he cried up, "Zacchaeus, come down quickly!" I want to be your guest today. Zacchaeus joyfully took him to his house.

And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.” And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
Luke 19:8-10 (ESV)

Zacchaeus experienced a change of heart: through the presence of Jesus and his soothing words, he was willing to reimburse his loss fourfold. To share one's assets with the poor. He recognized his forlornness and Jesus came to him to save him.

Zacchaeus had opened his house and heart. Today, Jesus stands at every door of the heart and knocks through the message of his word. He asks to be let in. He is the Redeemer, Deliverer of all sins. Talk to Jesus and make your needs known.

Ask for forgiveness and believe in Him.

6. The Truth of the Gospel

It consists in bringing people into perfect fellowship with God through the death and resurrection of Jesus, forgiveness, renewal and fellowship.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.[2] The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (ESV)


7. Preciousness of Truth

The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces
Psalm 119:72 (ESV)

Therefore I love your commandments above gold, above fine gold.
Psalm 119:127 (ESV)

 I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil.
Psalm 119:162 (ESV)
