Defining Truth

The idea that we can define absolute truth by our own thinking is a lie.  Your initial reaction to that statement might be to disagree.  You may believe you are quite capable of defining truth in your life.  You may agree that even though your Body of Truth might need a makeover in certain corners, the idea that you are incapable of defining truth is ridiculous.  If I was writing this from a secular perspective we might have something to argue about.  However, this is not a matter of human or secular perspectives.  I’m talking about spiritual truth; the things of God and the truth about ourselves as fallen creatures.  It is spiritual truth that we are incapable of defining by human reasoning. 

Spiritual truth must come by revelation and revelation alone.  The Bible is that revelation and if you have not read it, the truth you believe you know is suspect.
