I Want to Be True, Part Three

Jesus, the Live Truth

The one originating, living, visible truth, embracing all truths in all relations, is Jesus Christ.

He is true. He is the live truth. His truth, chosen and willed by him, the ripeness of his being, the flower of his sonship, which is his nature, the crown of his one topmost perfect relation acknowledged and gloried in, is his absolute obedience to his Father.

The obedient Jesus is Jesus, the Truth.

He is true and the root of all truth and development of truth in men. Their very being, however far from the true human, is the undeveloped Christ in them, and his likeness to Christ is the truth of a man, even as the perfect meaning of a flower is the truth of a flower.
