Truth Has A Source
‘To thine own self be true’ is perhaps one of the more famous quotes from Shakespeare. It is spoken by Polonius, the king’s advisor, in Act 1, Scene 3 of Hamlet. Polonius is suggesting that a person should be true to the moral principles they uphold. Polonius goes on to prove that personal truth is entirely relative. What truth is depends on your point of view.
We hear it often, don’t we: what is true for me is not necessarily true for you. It’s a post-modern refrain. Or is it? At the end of Judges, we read, ' In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in their own eyes.’ The people had forgotten not only what truth was but where it came from.
‘There is a way that seems right to a man,’ we read in Proverbs 14:12, ‘but its end is the way to death.’ That’s not a cheery thought, is it? If what seems right to us leads to our spiritual death, we aren’t walking the right path. Our focus is not on the king but on our own self-fulfilment.
To seek truth is to seek life. To seek life is to seek the one who gives life. Jesus tells us, ‘I am the way, the truth and the life’.
Truth has a source, and that source is Jesus Christ. When we realise that relative truth leaves us spiritually empty, then we look to God to lead us to His truth. He will teach us so that we recognise Jesus as the source of life, and that He is the God of our ultimate salvation.
