Truth Project
We wrapped up the series on GPS - God Positioning System. Really enjoyed this series. Starting our new one based on the Truth Project now. This past Sunday we looked into Veritology, the study of Truth. The question was What is truth? and Do we really believe what we believe is really real? Is there absolute truth out there at all or is it all relative? Jesus said He came to testify to the truth when he spoke to Pilate and throughout His ministry often spoke of truth. If that is what Jesus is all about it must be real and important. We defined truth as an accurate reflection of reality - reality as perceived by God because only He can see it perfectly. Too often today people would agree to the "accurate reflection of reality" but then add the statement that each persons reality is different. Although many people have differing views of reality, it is not a changeable thing. Reality exists no matter how we perceive it and is unchanged by our perception. The color of the wall in your room may be perceived differently by many people, but in reality it is only one color and that color is definable. Next week we will be digging into Theology, the study of God, and truth in that arena.
