'sTruth

"s'truth" is a contraction of the words "God's Truth" Implicit in this amalgamation of two words is the truth claim, that all truth is God's truth. Truth is that which propositionally, and accurately describes reality.That being so, no truth can ultimately claim to negate the existence of God, but rather- proclaims it. This blog is dedicated to the idea that it is incumbent on Christians to Love the Lord your God with all your mind.

Think of a sentence using the phrase "AS MANY AS" and then ask yourself the ordinary meaning that phrase gives to your new sentence. And then reapply that meaning to the scripture above.

Why Think?

What Do You Think?

Still Thinking

A Christian...a narrow thinking person

Truth By Definition Is Narrow- Everything else is excluded.

Honesty- Prerequisite for truth

Atheism- Really!

Now this is not true of all atheists- some try to get around this irrationality by redefining "nothing" as "something"!
