Summary/Abstract: In a world where the notion of truth has been lost, in a society where everything is relative, we need certainties. In an educational system with a relative truth, we need to show the truth that does not change according to the interests of an elite, of a society. Finally, all Christians claim to hold absolute truth, but truth is not negotiable. Truth is not divisible, let’s just take the part we like. We either take it as whole or we don’t. No half-measures work. That’s why a lot of people prefer to live a lie, because it’s more comfortable. It costs them nothing. That’s why many have gotten used to sin. Giving it up costs. When the truth comes out it changes mentalities, people, peoples, even countries. It changes everything. Dostoyevsky said: „If someone were to prove to me that Christ is outside the truth, I would rather stay with Christ than with ‚the truth’”. For Dostoevsky understood that Truth is not a set of rules, but is Jesus Christ himself. Jesus proclaimed himself, the Truth: I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me ( John 14:6). Truth is freedom, life, self-denial. It is the Truth that will judge us. Always a living conscience is a court of judgment. The communication of Truth sets us free.
