Truth is defined by one source as “sincerity in action, character, and utterance” ^[1]. Perhaps the most famous verse about truth in the Bible is what Jesus said
 “… I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

 So Jesus is truth and Jesus is also the Word (John 1:1, 14).
 As Christians we believe that every word in the Bible is true; this is the foundation upon which we live our lives. Knowing what the Bible says about truth and hiding God’s word in our heart helps us to know when we are listening to the Voice of Truth.
