He didn’t mean:

“You have your truth, and I have mine”

“Whatever you want to call truth is fine.”

No, truth is facts and absolute,

it’s things that are beyond dispute,

for we don’t know the truth full well

but he who made it all can tell,

and is omniscient, himself he’s true

and can be Guide to me and you.

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

Good argument. Truth is truth after all. It's just that people see things from different points of view. But I guess the person who has spoken it knows what the actual truth is. I like your thoughts for the day. 

Thank you Rhiannon.

Thanks, Bee. There is a lot of 'just say what you want to believe' these days, and our views can be very confused and deluded and conflicting, so it is good to have the main facts/foundations clear in scripture, to guide us.

warn regards, Rhiannon

Thanks, Linda. Well, he said he came to solve our need of God and forgiveness, and reading his words in the Bible can make things clearer. So I pray you'll find it so! warm regards, Rhiannon
