Do you believe in the existence of absolute truth?
was talking in another thread to
@amadeus and
@bbyrd009 about absolute truth. Wanted to respond further but it was going way off the topic of that thread. Hope you do not mind my posting it here instead. Tossed and turned last night thinking about absolute truth. Yes I believe in the existence of absolute truth. Wish there was more absolute truth for everyone including myself. Absolute truth being what God says about a person...not what I say or others or even their own selves but God. What I thought about so much last night was I’ve been given all my life false truths so much so I could not bear the heavy weight of rejection, inadequacy, fear, self harm and addictions And death...what I need is not more false truths but more absolute truths of what God says.
@Not me brought out something one day where God said we are
His workmanship...not each others workmanship but God’s workmanship. Every man would do well to hear God whisper absolute truth of come near you are loved despite what is passed. absolute truth being needed more that more false truth. Absolute truth to me would be “with open face beholding in a glass the glory of the Lord ...
are changed into the same image
from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3:18
2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but
at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal;
but the things which are not seen (Absolute truth)are eternal.
Ephesians 4:23-24 And be
renewed in the spirit of your mind(the absolute truth; with open face beholding in a glass the glory of the Lord); [24] And that
ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Depression medicines, drugs to self medicate, not even going hard after things which only lead to more false truths will not transform anyone into who God created them to be in Christ...only absolute truth of a New thing (beholding the glory of the Lord) never before heard for that person when God speaks and changes all the destructive messages planted of you are crap and not worth time or Love or Life.
Is it contained in one document/doctrine/church?
no. It is contained only in God.
Can you possess it fully?
sure hope so but it takes growing trust in what He says about me, instead of what I’ve believed for so very long.
Are you, as a Christian, a distributor of Absolute Truth?
no. Can only share how His love can transform a broken person.
no. Don’t have to.
If someone does not recognise your authority as an expert of Absolute Truth are they evil or liars or simply trying to destroy your beliefs?
no. I’m the only evil, liar, destroyer when I turn to that old message of whinnying and complaining and sulking after past things He said is no more remembered.
