Subjective Truth?
Excerpt from my latest post at Communitas Collective:
"What is TRUTH? Reality? Validity? Honesty? Loyalty? You can find those, and numerous other definitions in the dictionary. But I’ll be honest with you; I’ve always hated the word, if only because of the ways I’ve been beaten over the head with the concept by the religious establishment.Read the rest HERE.
The only definition of “truth” many Christians hold to…
Strong’s Greek 225: “Objectively…the truth as taught in the Christian religion, respecting God and the execution of his purposes through Christ, and respecting the duties of man, opposing alike to the superstitions of the Gentiles and the inventions of the Jews, and the corrupt opinions and precepts of false teachers even among Christians.”
…while completely missing the other:
Strong’s Greek 225: “Subjectively…truth as a personal excellence; that candor of mind which is free from affection, pretence, simulation, falsehood, deceit.”
