Jesus : The Truth

John 14:6 -  Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No-one comes to the Father except through me.


The Gospel of John records Jesus as referring Himself as being the 'Truth'. What does this mean for us?


John 1 describes the 'Word' being with God in the beginning. This passage clearly is referring to Jesus, meaning Jesus was there at creation. The existence of a God is the only way absolute truth can be rationalised and since everything on this earth is created by God, it is sensible to suggest that truth was also created by God. Jesus is the truth because He created the truth.


There are many voices calling out to us in today's world and it probably wasn't too much different in Jesus' time or at any other time. Adverts call on us to buy this and buy that and imply it will make us happy. Richard Dawkins and his Militant Atheist cult tell us there 'probably isn't a God' despite no evidence to suggest that and plenty of evidence to suggest the Universe was created. Peers tell us if only we wear this, or do this or live like this then we will be acceptable and right with the world. Actually, there is only one truth and that truth is Jesus Christ.


Jesus existed (37 records excl. the Gospels, some critical but show He existed!), Jesus died for us, Jesus paid for our sins and through Him we will have life to the full (John 10:10).


Jesus is the true key to peace, contentment, fulfillment and happiness. People who meet Jesus and get to know this rarely, if ever, go back, because it is true!


Don't believe the lies, believe Jesus. But don't take my word for it, take His. Don't trust me, Trust Him!


You can thank me in Paradise.
