Understanding Truth in Today's Culture War

Hello Graceful Warriors!


In defining truth, it is first helpful to note what truth is not:

• Truth is not simply whatever works. This is the philosophy of pragmatism—an ends-vs.-means-type approach. In reality, lies can appear to “work,” but they are still lies and not the truth.

• Truth is not simply what is coherent or understandable. A group of people can get together and form a conspiracy based on a set of falsehoods where they all agree to tell the same false story, but it does not make their presentation true. (media)

• Truth is not what makes people feel good. Unfortunately, bad news can be true.

• Truth is not what the majority says is true. Fifty-one percent of a group can reach a wrong conclusion.

• Truth is not what is comprehensive. A lengthy, detailed presentation can still result in a false conclusion.

• Truth is not defined by what is intended. Good intentions can still be wrong.

• Truth is not how we know; truth is what we know.

• Truth is not simply what is believed. A lie believed is still a lie.

So what is Truth?

John 14:6 Is the ultimate answer. God’s Word holds true, and we can trust everything He does. Here are a few verses of truth --But It is the entire word of God that is truth and that you can make your stand on and cash that check on.

Truth Verses:

  1. Numbers 23:19
  2. Psalms 15:2
  3. Psalms 119:160
  4. Psalms 33:4
