The word "truth," as found in the Holy Bible

By: Ron E. Matteson


If we say there is no sin in us, we are deceiving ourselves and refusing to admit the TRUTH, but if we acknowledge our sins, then God, who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins, 1 John 1. 8- 9.
The anger of God will fall upon the godless wickedness in mankind, because the TRUTH is suppressed due to their unrighteousness. All that may be known about God is perfectly and plainly before their eyes, since God has disclosed it to them, Romans 1.18-19.
Who ever wants to be Blessed on earth will ask to be Blessed by the God of TRUTH, and who ever takes oath on earth will take oath by the God of TRUTH, Isaiah 65.16.
All the TRUTH about us will be brought out in the law court of Christ and each of us will get what we deserve for the things we did in our body, good or bad, 2 Corinthians 5.10.
TRUTH breeds power of the Spirit of God, 2 Thessalonians 2. 13.
Grace and TRUTH came through Jesus Christ, John 1.17.
Since they will not grasp the love of the TRUTH and possibly be saved, God is sending a power to mislead them and make them believe what is UNTRUE, 2 Thessalonians 2.10-11.
I am aware of your faithfulness to the TRUTH, and of your life in the TRUTH, and it is my extreme joy to hear that you are living according to the TRUTH, 3 John 3-4.
Jesus said to the Jews who believed in Jesus, “Make your home in My word and you will surely be My disciples. You shall know the TRUTH and it will set you free,” John 8.31-32.
Those who are doomed for destruction are the persons who did not open their minds to love the TRUTH, and therefore gain eternal life in glory, 2 Thessalonians 2.10.
The time will come when some will not desire to hear God’s TRUE words. They will desire to have their ears filled with words that satisfy their own tastes, and they will seek out teachers who preach these words. These people will turn their ears away from the TRUTH and toward falsehood, 2 Timothy 4.3-4.
In the sight of God we openly declare the TRUTH, and this is how we seek approval from others conscience, 2 Corinthians 4.2.
Present yourselves to God as one who has come through trials without cause to be ashamed of life and work production, and has kept a straight course with the message of the TRUTH. Have nothing to do with pointless reasoning that only leads one further away from true religion. Those who call on the name of the Lord must avoid sin. Fasten your attention on holiness, faith, love, and peace, while being in union with all those who call on the Lord with pure minds, 2 Timothy 2.15-16, 19, 22.
If there are any informed, or wise, among you, prove it by good behavior with humility that comes from wisdom. If you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition, never be arrogant yourself and cover up the TRUTH with lies. Principles of this kind are not heavenly wisdom, but they are earthly, unspiritual, and devilish. Jealousy, combined with ambition, breeds disunity and disorder, James 3.13-16.
We have no power to act against the TRUTH and we can only further the TRUTH, 2 Corinthians 13.8.
All who do not accept the testimony of Jesus are testing the TRUTHFULNESS of God since Christ, whom God sent, speaks God’s own words, the law, John 3.32- 34.
God is the shield of those who follow TRUTH. God guards the paths of justice and keeps watch on the way of obedient ones. You will understand what is right and just, and follow paths leading to happiness when wisdom enters onto your spirit and knowledge is your pleasure. Prudence will keep watch over you and discernment will be your guardian to keep you from the way that is evil, from the one whose speech is deceitful, from those who leave the way of honesty to walk the way of darkness. Pursue the good way, persisting in the paths of the righteous, for the land will be for the obedient to live in Proverbs 2.7- 9, 20- 21
When the helper comes, the Spirit of TRUTH whom I, Christ, shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit will bear witness of Me, and you too will be witnesses because you have been with Me from the outset, John 15.26-27.
If we live by the TRUTH, in love, we shall grow in all ways into genuine Spiritual maturity, having received more than minimum Spiritual power. Then as separate parts of the one Spiritual body of Christ, we will perform perfectly in unity with the other parts, according to our purpose and function, (this is accomplished in God’s Universal invisible Church,) Ephesians 4.12-16. God, our Savior, wants everyone to have eternal life and reach the knowledge of the TRUTH. There is only one invisible God and only one mediator between God and humankind, Jesus Christ, invisible, who was sacrificed as a ransom for all, 1 Timothy 2.4-6.
I, Jesus, TRUTHFULLY say, until heaven and earth is completely destroyed, neither one letter nor one punctuation mark shall be banished from the law until all that must happen will have happened. God’s law will be used for judgment, Matthew 5. 17- 18; John 12. 48.
The law, God’s TRUE word, is holy, righteous, and good, and is a tool for heavenly wisdom, knowledge, and TRUTH, Romans 7.12; Proverbs 2. 6.
In TRUTH and love, grace, mercy, and peace, will be with us from God the Father, and God the Son, 2 John 3.
The purpose of God’s words, law, is to publish God’s will and to specify good, evil, knowledge, and TRUTH, Romans 2.18, 20.
TRUE worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and (TRUTH,) John 4. 23- 24.
Let us speak the (TRUTH,) in love, and we shall fully grow up in Christ. Christ is the head and on Him the whole body depends. The whole body is bonded together, every joint adding to its own strength, for each separate part to work according to its function. Then the body grows until it has built itself up in love, Ephesians 4.15-16.
You can put on the new self, which is Spiritual nature and follow God’s nature of TRUE holiness, as called for by God’s true words. Lay aside that unspiritual human nature of falsehood and speak the TRUTH to each other, Ephesians 4. 22- 25.
Fill your thoughts with whatever is TRUE, with whatever is honorable, with whatever is right, with whatever is pure, with whatever we love that is upright, and with whatever is of good morals and worthy of God, Philippians 4.8.
We are humankind, but the weapons we use to fight our battles are not of humankind type, they are spiritual. These weapons are not worldly, but of divine nature. These weapons can destroy fortresses, these weapons can destroy speculating imaginations, these weapons can test the arrogance that resists the (TRUE) knowledge about God, and these weapons can compel the humankind thought to surrender in obedience to Christ, 2 Corinthians 10.3-6.
God has anointed us, marking us with a seal and giving us the pledge, God’s Spirit, a Spirit with power that we carry in our spirit, and is necessary for one to be a (TRUE) believer, Mark 16.17-18.
You have stripped off your old behavior with your old self, (unspiritual nature,) and you have put on a new self, Spiritual nature, which will progress toward (TRUE) knowledge. There is no room for distinctions among others, since there is only one Christ, and Christ is everything, Christ is in everything. May the peace of Christ reign in your spirit, as parts of one body, (in God’s Universal invisible Church,) and you may be included, Colossians 3.5- 14.
I, Paul, am a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I teach to God’s chosen, the faith about knowledge of the TRUTH that leads to true religion, and the hope of eternal life in glory, Titus 1.1-2.
If the teachings of anyone do not agree with the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ, which conform to (TRUE) religion, then that teacher is full of self-conceit and is simply ignorant, 1 Timothy 6.3-4.
Worldly words may support God’s TRUE words, if the worldly words neither add to nor take away from any existing TRUE words of God or Angels of God. One should test prophesies and teachings, whether spoken or written, while using the TRUE word of God as to consider the accuracy of a prophecy or a teaching. Do not despise prophecy or teachings but always test them, 1 Thessalonians 5.19-22; 2 Peter 1.19-20.
One who believes (consider God’s TRUE words which define a believer, Mark 16:17-18.) in Christ shall not perish, but shall have eternal life in glory, John 3.16.
Eternal life in glory is to have Heavenly Knowledge about God, the only TRUE God and Jesus Christ whom God has sent, John 17.3. God welcomes those who are happy to do right and who keep God’s ways in mind, Isaiah 64. 5. God said, “Obey My laws and customs and whoever keeps them will find life in them,” Leviticus 18.5.
A believer should live a life worthy of God, who calls you to share in the glory of God’s Kingdom. God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness. The one who rejects this is not rejecting humankind, but is rejecting God who gives the Spirit of TRUTH to you, 1 Thessalonians 2.12; 4.7-8.
Many people came to Jesus and they were saying, “John performed no sign, yet everything John said about Jesus is TRUE,” and many believed in Jesus, John 10.40-42.
Stand firm with the belt of TRUTH, and you will need a shield of faith in order to stop the tactics of Satan; salvation for a helmet, and for a sword, the Spiritual TRUE word of God, Ephesians 6.14-17.
I ask that you, without fault or failure, obey the teachings of God’s TRUE words, the law, until the coming of the Lord, Jesus Christ, 1 Timothy 6.13-14.
Christ gave self up for the church so Christ could make the church holy by a washing with the water of the TRUE words of God. One must worship God in Spirit and in TRUTH, Ephesians 5. 26; John 4. 23.
Jesus said to God the Father, “You have given Me power over all humankind, that I can give eternal life in glory to those You have entrusted to Me, and eternal life in glory is to know You, he only TRUE God, and Myself whom You have sent. I have given them the words that You have given to Me and they have received them. None was lost, (except the one who chose to be lost due to freedom of choice, free will, Judas Iscariot). I ask You Father to keep them from evil. Make them holy through TRUTH and Your word, law, is TRUTH, (Christ does obey God’s Law). May they all be one, like You are in Me, and I am in You. That they may also be one in us, with Me in them and You in Me, and that the love which You love Me, may be in them,” John 17.2-3, 8, 12, 15, 17, 21, 23.
We are the people of circumcision, who worship God through God’s Spirit of TRUTH, Philippians 3.3.
TRUE instruction was in Levi’s mouth, unrighteousness was not found on Levi’s lips. Levi walked with Me in peace and uprightness and Levi turned many back from sinning. The lips, actions, of the PRIEST should preserve knowledge and one should seek instruction from the priest’s mouth for the priest is the messenger of God. However, you have turned aside from the way and you have caused many to stumble, by your corrupted instruction, actions. You have corrupted the covenant of Levi,” says God, “so I have made you detestable and looked down upon before all people, in repayment for the way you have not kept My paths but have shown partiality in your administration,” by your choices, (including worshiping humankind idol gods, and placing sinful priests on God’s Holy Altar,) Malachi 2.5-9.
God said, “speak the TRUTH to one another, let judgments at your gates be such as true to peace. Do not secretly plot evil against one another, do not love false oaths since all this is what I hate, but love both TRUTH and peace,” Zechariah 8.16-17, 19.
Jesus said, “The time has come when worshipers will worship the Father neither on this mountain, denomination X, nor in Jerusalem, denomination Z. Worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in TRUTH. The Father has taught us God is invisible, in Spirit, and those who worship must worship God in Spirit and in the TRUE words of God,” John 4.20-21, 23-24.
We must continue in faith and remain firm in its foundation by not turning to sin, a bad action which will break the faith. Do not lose the hope found in God’s TRUE word, Malachi 2. 10; Ezekiel 18. 24, 26.
A TRUE teacher tells you to use the holy faith as your religious foundation and to continue to pray in the power of the Spirit of God. Keep yourselves in the love of God and keep hope that the mercy of Christ will give you eternal life in glory, Jude 20, 21.
These following TRUE words of God are for consideration. “Avoid division to live in unity, 1 Corinthians 1.10-13. Jesus said, “He who is not with Me is against me and he who does not gather with Me, scatters,” Luke 11.23.
Jesus Christ said, “Will there be any faith on earth when I return,” Luke 18.8. This remark overshadows the continual overwriting of God’s TRUE words by some Christians. God could foresee this problem,
