what exactly is the point of this? Do you really thing anyone will say anything besides they want the truth? You really think someone, who honestly, wants a lie, is going to answer this poll honestly?

Its interesting that 2/3rd of the respondents want the truth, but 1/3rd are asking "What is truth?" The simple answer is that truth is everything that has been revealed by God to men -- Divine revelation.  And of course this is found in the Word of God (not in corrupt versions but in pure translations and in the traditional Hebrew and Greek texts), and in the 66 books of our English Bibles [the Hebrew Bible (Tanach) has only 24 books, which have been split up to give a total of 39 books in our Bibles].

May I get a list of " pure translations " and actual God-inspired text ?

And now, your true colors have shown-you have no actual want, or need for the truth-you just want to use this thread-to flame others who disagree with you.

That maybe but they won't admit to it-if they would then they would not be seeking an interpretation. I'm not going to vote on principal, seeing as I see this thread as more of a way to alienate peopl

we all want the truth , but when people are set in there ways, many are not able to handle the truth  !

or they want a watered down version of the truth.

interesting to note that there have been 4 posters and only 2 votes

oh as an addendum to the my response above, reading this website i see many people opting for interpretation over the truth or they will accept what they feel they want to be the truth and fight against those who bring the real truth to the forums.

I've yet to see anyone bringing 'the real Truth' in this thread. 

My point has been made. Thankyou

Perhaps the better question to ask is: can I face the truth?  It can be an ugly thing from our perspective to get into, but only because we then see our own ugliness sometimes when we have to accept it.

May I also suggest that this is a question you should be asking yourself first, and for a long enough time to digest the answer, before thinking whether to ask anyone else the same question.

No one has the monopoly on truth except God, for only He is omniscient.

Blessings :)

Amen sis. He has shared the truth with us all. Many believe they have it in perfection and completeness.

Jesus loves us all, died for our sins, and sits at the right hand of His ( and our ) Father in Heaven. 

Now THAT is real Truth, ATGNAT.

Are you suggesting that we are all "at sea"?

No.  I'm not suggesting, i am SAYING that no one has brought the real Truth and certainly not the whole of it.  Unless you've read something I haven't.

May I also add that we are ALL to be working out our individual salvation in fear and trembling ? Whether that be due to a slight in adherence to to the truth, or a misunderstanding of that truth, we should remain as humble servants and love one another as commanded by our Lord and savior, who is Christ Jesus.

Waiting to see if this turns into a post-modern debate or discussion.
