Bible Question:
What is truth? was the question Pilate asked Jesus. In John 8:32 Jesus says "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" In John 17:17 are we being taught that being set apart for God, that is being sanctified, is the way to knowing the truth and being free? Is that the same as knowing the Lord Jesus Christ personally in our lives? Compare with John 14:6 Waiting for your answer. Kindness |
Bible Answer: Greetings KINDNESS, Excellent study! You have shown us already that you are well "versed" in the Bible! :) John 17:17 says, "Your word is truth." Also, John 1:1 says that "the Word was God." Even so, John 14:6 states, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." So what is truth? Jesus was and is the Truth! What is so ironic is that the Truth was standing right there in front of Pilate when Pilate said, "What is truth?".. The only thing that gives us freedom and life is by knowing this Truth personally, which is Jesus Christ as our own personal Savior, who is God forever, Amen! That is what gives us the freedom: knowing Him as Savior and Lord. I pray that this answer would be sufficient! Your Brother in Christ, Nolan - Nolan has RETURNED! :) |
