“Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.”
John 18:37 KJV
the truth is Christs word. To be a Christian literally Means you have become a disciple of Jesus Christ
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
John 8:31-32 KJV
Again a “ Christian “ is what people started calling disciples of Jesus
“and when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.”
Acts 11:26
it’s just what people call Jesus disciples. It all comes back to what Jesus said when he lived among us he’s the king and judge
“He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.”
John 12:48-50
The truth is Jesus and everything he said and did christians re those who trust in him and do this this is what makes us a disciple
“All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:27-30 KJV
it’s about the discipleship of a believer importantly we are students of the lord he’s our teacher again another repeat of the same
“It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.”
John 6:45 KJV
If we want to know the truth l we have to do is learn it from Jesus it’s all written down and explained . If you look at the Bible as a whole everything in it points to believing the gospel which is recorded it times by four sources of eyewitnesses
note that no other subject matter in the Bible has four detailed accounts of Christs life while he lived on earth
the truth is found in the gospel according to Matthew , gospel according to mark , the gospel cording to Luke and gospel according to John
biblically l the words in the Bible are “ true “ of course but “ the truth “ is the gospel and everything Jesus preached and did it’s the New Testament word d then you have epistles afterwards testifying to its truth and the prophets beforehand testifying to its truth
in all scriptire everything is meant to lead us to become a disciple of Jesus Christ as he presented himself in the gospel
it’s what the Old Testament promised would come and what the New Testament swears is true
as disciples we aren’t perfect it’s a frame of mind to dedicate ourselves to learning from and knowing him and following after the things he teaches us knowing he’s merciful and that he is calling us to repentance and righteousness so we press on each day learning and growing in him by the word of truth we are born again as children who need to learn
“Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.”
James 1:18 KJV
if we follow scripture it’s going to lead us each one to the four accounts of the gospel and becoming a disciple of Jesus because we do actually believe in him who is truth
