There are many Bible Verses About Truth worth knowing. One might ask, “What is Truth?” It is rather unfortunate that almost two thousand years ago, Truth was put on trial and judged by men who were filled with lies and devoted to evil ways. In a single day, Truth faced six trials, three of which were legal and three that were religious. When it was over, only few people involved in those events could give elements of answers to the question, “what is the truth?” The Bible tells us that after being arrested, the Truth was first led to a corrupt former high priest of the Jews named Annas. Behold, Annas break numerous Jewish Laws during the trial, including trying to induce self-accusations against the defendant, holding the trial in his house, and striking the defendant who had not been convicted of any wrong at that time.

The Bible further tells us that after Annas, the Truth was led to the reigning high priest, Caiaphas, who happened to be Annas’s son-in-law. Standing before Caiaphas the high priest and the Jewish Sanhedrin, numerous false witnesses came forward to speak against the Truth. Caiaphas break not fewer than 7 Jews Laws in his attempt to convict the Truth:

1. The trial was held in secret
2. The trial was carried out at night
3. It involved bribery
4. The defendant had no one present to make a defense for Him
5. The requirement of 2 to 3 witnesses in the trial could not be met
6. They used self-incriminating testimony against the defendant
7. They subjected the defendant to a death penalty on the same day

All these actions were prohibited by the Jews Law. Regardless, Caiaphas declared the Truth guilty because the Truth claimed to be God in the flesh, what Caiaphas referred to as blasphemy.

Bible Verses About Truth

The Bible tells us that when morning came, the third trial of the Truth took place in the midst of His enemies who wanted Him dead. Behold, this third trial came with the result that the Jewish Sanhedrin pronounced the Truth should die. However, the Jewish council had no legal right to carry out the death penalty, so they were forced to take the Truth to Pontius Pilate who was the Roman governor at that time. Pontius Pilate was appointed by Tiberius as the fifth prefect of Judea and saved in that capacity A.D. 26 to 36. It is worth pointing out here that Pontius Pilate who was the procurator had power of life and death and had the authority to reverse capital sentences passed by the Sanhedrin. The Bible tells us that as the Truth stood before Pontius Pilate, more lies were brought against Him.

These lies were formulated and brought by His enemies who wanted Him dead at all cost. Behold, His enemies said, “We found this man misleading our nation and forbidding to pay taxes to Caesar, and saying that He Himself is Christ, a King” (Luke 23:2). This was a clear lie, as the Truth had told everyone to pay their taxes (Matthew 22:21) talk-less of speaking about Himself as a human challenge to Caesar.

What does the Scriptures say about the Truth?

Despite all the accusations against the Truth, Pontius Pilate requested for and enhanced an interesting conversation with the Truth.
John 18:33–38 says, “Therefore Pilate entered again into the Praetorium, and summoned Jesus and said to Him, ‘Are You the King of the Jews?’ Jesus answered, ‘Are you saying this on your own initiative, or did others tell you about Me?’ Pilate answered, ‘I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered You to me; what have You done?’ Jesus answered, ‘My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm.’ Therefore Pilate said to Him, ‘So You are a king?’ Jesus answered, ‘You say correctly that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.’ Pilate said to Him, ‘What is truth?’”

Note that Pilate’s question, “what is the truth?” has been the talk of time across several centuries. That is, it has reverberated down through history. In regard to this question, many have been wondering whether it was a melancholy desire to know that which no one else could tell him, a sarcastic insult, or perhaps an irritated reply to Jesus’ words. So what is truth?

A general overview and proposed definition of Truth

In our effort to genuinely propose a definition for truth, we’ll start by pointing what truth is not:

• Truth is not merely whatever works. Such is the philosophy of pragmatism-an ends.vs. -means-type approach. We all know that in reality, lies can appear to “work,” but this does not change the fact that they are not lies and not the truth.
• Truth is not simply what is coherent or understandable. Behold, it is possible for a group of people to get together and form a conspiracy based on a set of falsehood whereby they all agree to tell the same false story. From all angles, this does not make their presentation true.
• We can as well say that truth is not what makes people feel good. This is so, because even bad new can be true.
• Truth is not defined by what is intended. This is so because even good intentions can be wrong.
• Truth is not necessarily what is comprehensive. This is so because even a well detailed lengthy presentation can still result to a false conclusion.
• We can as well say that truth is not how we know; truth is what we know.
• Truth is not what is publicly proved. Note that a truth can be privately know (for example a buried treasure in the thick forest ).
• Truth is not simply what is believed to be. This is so because even a lie believed still remains a lie.

What is Truth?

The Greek word for “truth” is aletheia , which literally means “un-hide” or “hiding nothing.” This Greek word conveys the thought that truth is always there, with nothing being hidden or obscured, as it is always open and available for all to see. The Hebrew word for “truth” is emeth, meaning “firmness,” “constancy” and “duration.” This definition or meaning points to an everlasting substance or something that we can firmly rely upon. The philosophical approach reveals three simple ways to define truth which are:

1. Truth is simply telling it like it is.
2. Truth is that which matches its object.
3. It is that which matches reality

It is very important to understand that truth corresponds to reality or “what is.” Truth is real and correspondent to nature. That is, it is such that it matches its object and it is well known by its referent. In short, truth is simply telling it the way it is. Truth reveals the way things really are, and any other viewpoint is wrong.

Philosophical Challenges to Truth

The foundation principle of philosophy is being able to discern between truth and error. Thomas Aquinas puts it this way, “It is the task of the philosopher to make distinctions.” It is rather unfortunate that Aquinas’ words are not very popular these days. It is sad to say but making distinctions seems to be out of fashion in a postmodern era of relativism. Note that it is acceptable to say that “This is true,” so long as it is not accompanied by, “and therefore that is false.” Such is highly observable in matters of faith and religion whereby, every belief system is supposed to be on equal footing where truth is involved. Although there are several philosophies and worldviews that challenge the concept of truth, yet, when each is critically examined in the light of understanding, it turns out to be self-defeating in nature.

1. Philosophy of relativism

The philosophy of relativism holds that all truth is relative and that there is no such things as absolute truth. With this in mind, we can ask whether the claim that “all truth is relative” is a relative truth or absolute truth? If it is a relative truth, this makes it highly meaningless because we do not know when and how it applies. If it is an absolute truth, then absolute truth exists. In addition, the relativist betrays his own position when he states that the position of the absolutist is wrong – why can’t all who say that absolute truth exist be correct? In essence and fact, when the relativist says, “There is no truth,” he is simply asking you not to believe him. And in such a circumstance, the best thing to do is to follow his advice and not believe him.

2. Philosophy of Skepticism

All those who follow the philosophy of skepticism simply doubt all truth. Whatever the case, is the skeptic skeptical about skepticism; does he for once doubt his own truth claim? If so, then why even suffer yourself by paying attention to skepticism? If not, then we can be at-least sure of one thing (in other words, absolute truth exist)-skepticism, which, ironically, becomes absolute truth in that case.

3. Philosophy of Agnosticism

The Agnostic says that you can’t know the truth. Yet the mindset in this case is self-defeating because it claims to know at least one truth: that you can’t know the truth.

4. Philosophy of Postmodernism

As for the disciples of postmodernism, they simply affirm no particular truth. Frederick Nietzsche who is the patron saint of postmodernism described truth as: “What then is truth? A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms … truths are illusions … coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins.” Sarcastically, although the postmodernist holds coins in his hands that are now “mere metal,” he affirms at least one absolute truth: the truth that no truth should be affirmed. Just like all other world vies, postmodernism is self-defeating and can not stand the test of time.

5. Philosophy of Pluralism

Pluralism is another popular worldview which says that all truth claims are equally valid. Of course, this is absolutely impossible. Behold, immediately you start making good use of your senses, you’ll realize that this concept does not hold. Can two claims – one that says a woman is now pregnant and another that says she is not now pregnant – both be true at the same time? Pluralism is unraveled at the feet of the law of non-contradiction, which holds that something can not be both “A” and “Non-A” at the same time and in the same sense.

As one philosopher quipped, anyone who thinks or believes that the law of non-contradiction is not true (and, by default, pluralism is true) should be beaten and burned until they admit that to be beaten and burned is not the same thing as to not be beaten and burned. In addition, pluralism says that it is true and that anything oppose to it is false, which is a claim that denies its own fundamental tenet: all truth claims are equally valid. It is important to understand that the spirit behind pluralism is an open-armed attitude of tolerance. However, pluralism ends up confusing the idea of everyone having equal value with every truth claim being equally valid. Although all people may be equal, not all truth claims are.  Mortimer Adler says, “Pluralism is desirable and tolerable only in those areas that are matters of taste rather than matters of truth.”

Understanding the Offensive Nature of Truth

On most occasions, when the concept of truth is maligned, it is usually for one or more of the following reasons:

One of the most common complaint against anyone claiming to have absolute truth in matters of faith and religion is that such a stance is “narrow minded.” However, the critic in this situation fails to understand that, by nature, truth is narrow. Common and tells whether or not a mathematics teacher is narrow-minded for holding to the belief that 2 + 2 equals 4?

Another objection to truth is the belief that it is arrogant to claim that a person is right and another is wrong. However, referring to our mathematical example above, is it arrogant for a math teacher to insist on only one right answer to an arithmetic problem? Or is it arrogant for a locksmith to say that only one key will unlock a locked door?

Another complaint against those holding to absolute truth in matters of faith and religion is that such a position excludes people, rather than being inclusive in approach. The critic in this case fails to understand that truth, by nature, excludes its opposite. Basing ourselves on the arithmetic above, we can say without doubt that all answers other than 4 are excluded from the reality of what 2 + 2 equals.

Another charge against those holding to absolute truth in matters of faith and religion is that it is offensive and divisive to claim that one has the truth. Here, the critic argues that what actually matters is sincerity. However, truth is immune to sincerity, belief, and desire. No matter how sincerely a person believes a wrong key will fit a door; the key won’t still go in talk-less of unlocking the door.

More Facts on the Offensive Nature of Truth

It is important to understand that truth is unaffected by sincerity. For example, a person who picks up a bottle of poison and sincerely believes that it is lemonade will still end up suffering the heavy effects of the poison if he/she drinks. Likewise, truth is impervious to desire. If the gauge indicates that the tank is empty and the car will not run any farther, there is no desire in the world that will miraculously cause the car to continue going.

There are some people who admit that absolute truth exists, but then claim such a stance valid only in the area of science and not in that of faith and religion. Such is the philosophical way of thinking known as logical positivism. This philosophy was made popular by philosophers like David Hume and A. J. Ayer. According to them, truth claims must either be (1) tautologies (for example, all bachelors are married men) or (2) empirically veritable (that is testable via scientific approaches). To the logical positivists, all talk about God is nonsense.

It is unfortunate that those who hold to the concept that only science can make truth claims fail to understand that there are many realms of truth where science is impotent. Below are some few examples.

Examples

• Science cannot prove metaphysical truths such as, minds other than my own do exist.
• Science cannot prove the disciplines of mathematics and logic because it presupposes them.
• In addition, science is incapable of stating truths about aesthetic positions such as the beauty of a sunrise.
• Science is incapable of providing truth in the areas of morals and ethics. For example, you cannot use science to prove that the Nazis were evil.
• Each time that a person makes the statement “science is the only source of objective truth,” they have just made a philosophical claim – which cannot be tested in anyway by science.

There are also people who hold to the claim that absolute truth does not apply in the area of morality. Yet the response to the question, “Is it morally upright to torture and murder an innocent child?” is absolute and universal: No. We can as well make it look more personal by pointing to the fact that those who espouse relative truth concerning morals always seem to want their spouse to be absolutely faithful to them.

God and Truth

All through the six trials of Jesus Christ, the contrast between truth (righteousness) and lies (unrighteousness) was clear. Jesus Christ, the Truth, stood being judged by those whose actions were deeply rooted in evil. In handling the case of Jesus Christ, the Jewish leaders broke nearly every Law that was given to Moses by God to protect a defendant from wrongful conviction. It is sad to say but the Jewish leaders worked to find any testimony that would incriminate Jesus. In their frustration and desire to have Jesus Christ killed, they turned to false evidence brought by liars who also wanted Jesus Christ dead. Upon noticing that all their efforts to convict or incriminate Jesus were not working, they broke another Law and forced Jesus to implicate Himself.

Even in front of Pilate, the Jewish leaders lied again. Having convicted Jesus of blasphemy and realizing that it won’t be sufficient to coax Pilate to kill Him, they claimed that Jesus was challenging Caesar and was breaking Roman Law by encouraging everyone not to pay taxes. It was not long that Pontius Pilate detected their superficial deception, and he did not address the charge. Note that Jesus the righteous was judged by the unrighteous. He who had no sin was judged by sinners. The good suffered in the hands of the bad. Another sad fact is that the later always persecutes the former. As you’ll read from the Bible verses about truth, you’ll clearly perceive the relationship between truth and righteousness and between falsehood and unrighteousness.

What is Truth?

Jesus Christ clearly tells us in John 14:6 – “I am the truth.” Although simple, it is an incredible statement to be spoken by a human being. How could be a mere man be the truth? The truth is that He couldn’t be unless He was more than a mere human being, which is actually what He claimed to be. Although Jesus’ claim was doubted at that time, it was validated when He rose from the dead (Romans 1:4) and ascended as God the Son to the presence of God the Father who gave Him all authority and power in Heaven, on Earth and in the world to come (Matthew 28:18).

The One Pilate and the Jewish leaders convicted will one day serve as their judge, as He will be for all people who suppress the truth with unrighteousness. Records hold that Pontius Pilate evidently never came to knowledge of the truth. Eusebius, the historian and Bishop of Caesarea, records the fact that Pontius Pilate ultimately committed suicide at some point in time during the reign of the emperor Caligula. This sad ending which was experienced by Pontius Pilate is an indication that ignoring the truth leads to severe consequences (physical and spiritual death). On the other hand, Believing, Sincerely Repenting, and obeying the Key Teachings of Jesus Christ sets us apart as beneficiaries of God’s special gift of Eternal Life. In this way, we are saved from the Fire of Hell and the Judgement Day.
