Truth of God, the

God's truth is an eternal, unchanging attribute that forms the foundation of His character and all His promises. His Word is completely reliable and worthy of our full trust.

Overview

The truth of God encompasses His perfect faithfulness, reliability, and the absolute certainty of His word. God cannot lie, and His truth endures forever, standing as the bedrock of His covenant relationship with His people. This truth is inseparable from God's other attributes like righteousness, mercy, and faithfulness.

Key Scriptures

"The LORD is righteous in all his ways and kind in all his works" (Psalm 145:17, ESV). "God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?" (Numbers 23:19, ESV). "And all the promises of God find their Yes in him" (2 Corinthians 1:20, ESV).

Application

Build your faith on God's absolute truthfulness by standing firmly on His written Word and trusting His promises, knowing they will never fail or change.
