What is Truth?
This is obviously not the whole truth, but a small taste.
I am not a superior on the subject of truth, but simply a student.
Pilate asked,”What is truth?” and walked away.
I want to ask the same and wait for an answer.
I want to know truth to make judgements, and not to make judgements about the truth.
I am not a prophet and I have no revelation, but I am an average person who likes to think.
Think with me that maybe truth is…
correct, not conceptual;
specific, not speculative;
absolute, not abstract;
singular, not supposition;
honest, not hypothesis;
definite, not debatable;
quintessence, not questionable;
reality, not relativity;
verity, not variety;
fidelity, not falsity;
proper, not pragmatic;
right, not rumour;
reliable, not reasoning;
immutable, not imaginary;
objective, not opinion;
supernal, not subjective;
eternal, not extinct;
the accurate, not the acceptable;
the ultimate, not the understood;
the legitimate, not the logical;
the Bible, not the big bang;
Theos, not theory;
and Truth is the Word, not the whatever.
