The Only “Truth” (The-Only series: 9 of 14)


Discovering the Matchless Majesty of God

Jesus says with him, ‘I am that way, then that truth, then that life, not anyone having gone to the Father except by the means of Me.’”
John 14:6 (2020 New Testament)

In a culture saturated with opinion, algorithms, and relativism, truth feels increasingly slippery. One moment it’s trending; the next it’s challenged. “Live your truth” has become the anthem of modern identity, as if truth is subjective and changeable—something to be curated rather than discovered. This is not just dangerous it is perpetually deadly. There cannot be multiple versions of truth…when this occurs they are delusions at best.

Yet, deep down, our souls ache for something more than personal narratives.
We ache for truth that doesn’t shift.
Truth that holds firm when the storm hits.
Truth that doesn’t need re-branding or approval.
We ache for the Only Truth.

Devotional Insight

When Jesus said He is that Truth, He wasn’t offering a philosophy—He was declaring His identity. Truth is not just a concept; it’s a Person. He didn’t say He has the truth or teaches the truth—He is the Truth.

That means when everything else feels uncertain, Jesus is still unshaken.
When your feelings conflict with Scripture, Jesus stands as the standard.
When the world tells you to define your truth, Jesus reminds you that truth has already been defined—and it leads to freedom (John 8:32).

To follow Jesus is to walk within truth—not partial, not personal, but perpetual.

And while that truth may be confronting or uncomfortable at times, it is never unloving.
His truth never convicts without offering grace, never exposes without inviting healing.
It confronts to set us free.

Reflection Question

Where in your life have you been tempted to reshape truth around your comfort or culture?
Are you willing to let Jesus—the Only Truth—be the authority you surrender to?

Prayer Prompt

Dear Jesus, You are the Truth. Unchanging, perpetual, sacred. I confess the ways I’ve shaped truth around my feelings, fears, or the voices around me. I repent for treating you as an Add-On to my life rather than life itself. Anchor me within Your Word. Grant me a hunger and thirst for You. Let me follow You with a pure heart open to correction, committed to truth, and grounded within Love. Amen.
