What Does the Bible Say About Truth?

In a world filled with shifting opinions, news cycles, and half-truths, many are asking a timeless question:
What is truth — and where can I find it?

The Bible doesn’t just give facts. It introduces a person — Jesus — who is the truth (John 14:6). Truth, according to the Bible, isn’t something we invent. It’s something we receive — from God, through His Word.

1. Truth Is Found in God’s Word

"Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth."
— John 17:17

The Bible speaks of truth not just as moral rightness, but as something eternal, unchanging, and trustworthy. God’s Word is not just true — it is truth. That means you can build your life on it.

2. Jesus Is the Truth

"I am the way, and the truth, and the life."
— John 14:6

Jesus doesn’t just point to truth; He embodies it. When we want to know what’s real, lasting, and good, we look to Him. The more we read the Bible, the more we meet Jesus in its pages — and the more clarity we find.

3. Truth Brings Freedom

"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
— John 8:32

God’s truth doesn’t chain you with rules. It frees you from lies — about who you are, what you’re worth, and where hope is found.

4. The Bible Is a Compass for Today

Truth is personal, yes — but it’s also practical.
The Bible helps you navigate issues of identity, purpose, suffering, relationships, and more. It brings light into dark places and steadies your heart when headlines don’t.
