“What is true for you doesn’t have to be true for me”
People will not embrace the truth of the Gospel if they don’t believe in truth
A “NEW” VIEW OF TRUTH

THE STORY THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND
“What is truth?” (John 18:37-38; 14:6)
God gives us sufficient truth through the Bible (John 17:17; Deuteronomy 29:29)
We don’t always clearly see the truth God has revealed (1 Corinthians 13:12; 1 John 4:18)
Many “Christians” do not see God or the Bible as the source of truth
Through the Bible, we come to know God, who is not only the source of truth, but is Truth
