In today’s devotion I want to share some quotes on the truth about truth. Before I share these thought provoking quotes, however, I would like to share two Scriptures on truth that I pray you will memorize and hide them in your heart:
“Truth stands the test of time; lies are soon exposed.” (Proverbs 12:19 TLB)
“I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. (3 John 1:4)
Below are some amazing quotes on truth that I hope will bless you and help you to always cherish the truth that we find in the Word of God.1
“At the end of his life Buddha said: ‘I am still searching for truth.’ This statement could be made by countless thousands of scientists, philosophers, and religious leaders throughout all history.

“… the mind was designed not to defend what we want, but to discover what is ultimately true, which should shape our wants and satisfy them more deeply with God.
