Truth: that is where reality exists. It proves what is real. It is an unwavering proof of something. Truth does not change. It is the thing that all things are founded on.
Truth is even the foundation of lies. Without truth, a lie cannot exist. However, truth always exists. It does not need a lie. Truth does not even have to be believed to exist. It needs no support. It just is. Truth exists in the unseen. As do lies, but lies exist after truth does. Without truth, there is no lie. A lie cannot be seen, it is but a vapor. A shred of truth twisted and shaped to be what it is not. An attempt to justify the lie, yet still founded and fueled by the truth.
A lie cannot be seen, it can only be stripped way to reveal the truth. A true witness exposes the lie for what it is, an aberration of the truth. The Oxford dictionary says that a similar meaning for aberration is “defect”. In example, it goes on to say that when applied in optics (seeing), a defect causes a failure of the rays to converge at one focus. Without one focus, there are choices. Which choice is true? Remove the defect and only one focus remains. That is truth. It is not necessary for truth to be seen to be true. It exists and is true without manifestation. Lies blur and try to hide truth. Lies believed cast a shadow on truth by blocking the light from landing on it and allowing it to be seen.
But truth calls for a witness to be seen. And there is a cloud of witness around us. Truth is a light that shines and reveals. It pierces the darkness and shows the foundations of truth. The truth of love. The very love that causes all things to be. Creation. Love is the beginning of all things. Love exists always. Without love, no thing has reason to be. Yet there things are! Visible and invisible, things exist and are. They can be seen and sensed. Why? Because of love. Love is truth and is the foundation of truth. Can one lie and call it love? Can the truth be hidden from one and testify of love for that same one? And what is love without a lover? A lover is a revealer and testifier of truth. A witness. Jesus Christ is the witness. The testimony of the perfect love. The love of God. For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Son, so that whosoever would believe in Him, would not perish, but have everlasting life. God is love. And in Him is all truth. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. God embodied in the flesh. Walking with God, filled with God and returning to God in His forever. His everlasting life of glory. His love for His creation is true and faithful. Though separated from Him by a lie that He does not love His creation and His created, He has removed the defect, the lie, in Christ Jesus. The truth is that creation is dying and dead without love. The love of God. There is no greater love than one would lay down one’s life for another. Christ laid down both His life with God The Father and His life as the Son of Man in order that creation would be saved and reunited with The Creator eternally. This is love. This is God. This is truth. This is reality.
