ARE YOU SEARCHING FOR TRUTH?

If your response to the title question is "yes", then you have a lot of company. Whether a person is a scientist, a philosopher, religiously inclined or a researcher of historical facts, all have as goal to find reality. No doubt, atheists supply what they believe to be truth, but agnostics claim that the truth cannot be known.
Did I hear someone out in cybar space say, "Finding truth is not all that important'? Really! Our life is occupied with finding out the facts. When purchases are made, people check the ticket or bill to determine if the bottom line figure represents the truth. When we hear statements, do we not ask ourselves, "is that gossip or essentially true?" When you think about it, no one is totally indifferent to truth.
If we now agree that truth is important, the next question is where and how does one find the truth? First of all, we have existing ancient records, in stone, on papyrus or paper and today we have access to millions of items that are or could be claimed to be "fact." Through modern technology, we are bombarded with information in the form of theories and hypotheses, which can be found to be very dependable. BUT CAN WE BE SURE?
At the core of our search for truth, we engage our intelligence and ability to perceive, every single days of our lives. But how do we determine whether or not we are being successful in finding the truth?
I can encourage you by reminding you of something that you have probably heard: There is such a thing as ABSOLUTE TRUTH. At this moment whether you realize it or not, you believe certain facts to be really true, but of others, you are not sure. In science, nature, history and other disciplines, many absolute truths have already been found. The process goes on.
In conducting the research process, we use our human spirit, which animates our body.
Anthropology and archeology show that every civilization, cultural and sub-cultural studies, include a search for a "higher power." Now, what sources have you been using in looking for spiritual truth, for that "higher power?"
Here is how I have found absolute truth in the spiritual realm. I have used the sixty-six books of the Holy Bible, and more precisely, the Person of the Son of God, who became a man so as to show people the way to the TRUTH. He stated, "I am the Truth" ( John 14:6) The Eternal God determined what man needs to know and has revealed that collective knowledge. Written over a period of fifteen centuries and still applicable today, another twenty centuries later, it remains the WORLD'S ALL TIME BESTSELLER.

GRAB YOUR BIBLE! Submerge yourself in ABSOLUTE TRUTH.
