Truth

The other day we talking to some friends. They made a point one way. We made the same point a different way. This went back and forth with a somewhat heated discussion. Finally, one of our friends said, “Well, at least we can agree to disagree.” I hate that statement and it isn’t because I think I’m right all the time either.

Somewhere there is truth.

In this culture, truth is determined by the courts. In the old wild west days, it was whoever had the fastest draw. On TV it was the Lone Ranger who fought for justice then Super Ninja Turtles. But now it is the courts and the court of public opinion.

I don’t like the courts and I really don’t agree with most of public opinion. So, if you believe as I do that the courts don’t always have the truth, then where is truth? We have the Supreme Court. Surely they dispense truth. If you don’t believe them, then where is truth?

Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the light. It turns out that truth rests with Jesus Christ. He has the final judgment. He judges whether or not you are telling the truth. He judges if you belief that He is the truth. How will He judge you?
