What is Truth?

 This morning, while I was reading 1 John 2, I was reminded of Pontius Pilate, when he asked YAHUSHA, "What is Truth?" (John 18:38).   So what is Truth?   I believe we should let Scriptures define Scriptures and use the below verses to define Truth.

  • Psalm 119:142 ->  Your righteousness is righteousness forever, And Your Torah is truth
  • John 14:6 -> יהושע (YAHUSHA) said to him, “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 
  • John 8:32 -> and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” 
  • 2 Timothy 2:15 -> Do your utmost to present yourself approved to Elohim, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly handling the Word of Truth
  • Ephesians 6:14 ->  Stand, then, having girded your waist with truth, (Isaiah 11:5) and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (Isaiah 59:17),
  • Below is a link to a Blog which I had posted about YAHUSHA being the living and walking Torah.    YAHUSHA - the Living and Walking TORAH

Looking at the above definitions, let's look at the verses from 1 John 2: 3-6.
  • 1 John 2:2  And He Himself is an atoning offering for our sins, and not for ours only but also for all the world.
  • 1 John 2:3  And by this we know that we know Him, if we guard His commands. (See  1 John 3:6.) 
  • 1 John 2:4  The one who says, “I know Him,” and does not guard His commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him
  • 1 John 2:5  But whoever guards His Word, truly the love of Elohim has been perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. (See Genesis 17:1, Psalm 119:1, Matthew 5:48,  1 John 3:24). 
  • 1 John 2:6  The one who says he stays in Him ought himself also to walk, even as He walked. 
Does this give you a new perspective on verses from 1 John 2?  Brothers and Sisters, we are living in a time where we need to know the truth and be obedient to YAHUAH's Word.  Find YAHUSHA, the Living and Walking Torah,  while You can, the day is coming when the door will be closed.

יהוה (YAHUAH) bless you and guard you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) lift up His face upon you, and give you peace.
