GEMS OF THOUGHT
TRUTH ETERNAL. What we have in us of the image of God is the love of truth and justice.— Demosthenes. Jesus answered ... To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. —New Testament: John 18:37. Christ did not simply speak the truth; He was the truth, truth, through and through; for truth, is a thing not of words, but of life and being.—Robertson. The ideals of primitive Christianity are nigh, even at our door. Truth is not lost in the mists of remoteness or the barbarisms of spiritless codes. — Mary Baker Eddy. The greatest friend of truth is time; her greatest enemy is prejudice; and her constant companion is humility.— Colton. Falsehood is in a hurry; it may be at any moment detected and punished; truth is calm, serene; its judgment is on high; its king cometh out of the chambers of eternity.;—Joseph Parker.
