On Truth and Falsity

                     Jesus is the Truth continued

Jesus also told Thomas that He is "the life." John 14:6 (KJB). Christ can not only create and give life, He is Life itself. Christ can extend life from Himself to create physical and spiritual life. Christ can also make physical and spiritual life eternal. Christ can also give His own eternal and perfect Life to believers whom He saves by His grace. John 5:24; John 14:16-18; John 17:1-3 (KJB). When Christ raises all repentant, living humans from the regions of the dead, He will recreate them all to have a created, eternal physical and spiritual life so that they can live on His new earth forever, but they will not possess His own eternal Life. Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB).

Jesus also told Thomas, and all of His believers, that He is "the truth." John 14:6 (KJB). Jesus meant that He can not only create the truth, such as the written Word of God, but He is the Truth itself. Since Jesus is Truth itself, then every true system that He ever created must be a part of the Word of God. All of the physical and biological laws of the universe must be a part of the Word of God. Psalm 19:1-4; Romans 1:19-20 (KJB). God gave humans limited intelligence so that humans could create some true systems for the benefit of their fellow humans, but God knew exactly what those systems would be. Acts 15:18 (KJB). God also gave humans the ability to investigate the unknown so that they could discover truth for themselves.

The King James Bible happens to be the infallible and inerrant Word of God in English. All other so-called versions of the Bible leave out a part of God's Word. The King James Bible was translated wholly from the Greek Received Text which is the Word of God in Greek. The KJB is not infallible and inerrant for the reasons many suppose. Many contend that the KJB has to be infallible and inerrant because God cannot make errors, but many who criticize the KJB point out the fact that it does contain some errors and contradictions. But except for a few contradictions that happen to be paradoxes, the errors and contradictions in the KJB happen to be man's errors, not God's. All of the paradoxes can be easily explained such as the one in Proverbs 26:4-5. A believer must be guided by the Holy Spirit to know when to answer or not answer a fool. While it happens to be true that God cannot make errors, God will also never fail to tell humans the exact truth about who they are. Jesus clearly taught that divorce is always a sin. Mark 10:11-12 (KJB). But Jesus also taught that Moses gave God's people divorce, not God. Mark 10:1-9 (KJB). God allowed Moses to give His people divorce because God has tremendous confidence in Himself that He can handle human sin. All through the KJB, God relates that the Devil and evil must be fought against, but God has compassion for sins of weakness. The KJB accurately and faithfully records the human condition with all of its doubts, despair, suffering, and its ability to sin and make errors. The entire books of Job and Ecclesiastes faithfully records the human condition. When in his state of despair, Job said some things which were not true. Job 7:21; Job 10:20-22 (KJB). When king Solomon said "all is vanity," that is certainly not true, but God faithfully records that he said it. Ecclesiastes 1:2 (KJB). God allowed humans to put errors and contradictions even in His Word because that happens to be what humans are prone to do. The KJB is infallible and inerrant because God tells humans the simple truth about who they are and God's solutions to their spiritual problems.
