John 1:1-4
The Word Becomes Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.

Jesus and Truth
36 Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place."
37 "You are a king, then!" said Pilate.
Jesus answered, "You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me."
38 "What is truth?" Pilate asked.
Hebrews 13:8
Jesus the Same, Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
Jesus stood up two thousand years ago and said He is Truth...He also said that God's Word is Truth...And He said when we know the Truth, the Truth shall set us free...He is the Absolute Truth...Jesus is the basis for truth...He is the foundation of Truth...He has always existed...This is why He came into this world, to testify to the Truth...And everyone on the side of Truth listens to Him...And Something in us guides us towards the Truth...
The Truth is very important...We were created by God...If we are not created by God, then we are just randomly here...And our thoughts are just random chemical events randomly happening and we have no guidance, no Holy Spirit...If we are just ancestors of amphibians, fish, and monkeys then all are thoughts are indeed based on a history of randomness...And all of mankind's thoughts have came from randomness...If this is true, then human behavior can be reduced to random behavior from our ancestors...Our ideas and dreams do not matter, if our ancestors are a fish, because they have no foundation, no basis...For without an Absolute Truth in what we think and in what we do, we have no basis for being rational...Or for that matter even being good...
But Jesus confirms that we are from God, and by His very existence and speaking of the Truth about these things...Jesus was here in the beginning...If all of our thoughts, ideas, and feelings are just the products of an evolved and random causes, this would include from the beginning of time -everyone's own thoughts and ideas...In other words, there is no human reasoning, if I just believe in the historical randomness of all things...If we are randomly here and our thoughts are just random events how are we personally responsible for our actions?...And somehow if we are here randomly, we are now to believe that our thoughts and minds have just somehow changed, and we are now here (all of a sudden) because of an evolved brain, mind, ideas, thoughts, and feelings...And only in the past thousand years are we responsible for our actions...There is such a thing as human rational...So one can believe human rational came randomly and all of a sudden out of the blue...Or has human rational always been here, since the beginning, and is the same, yesterday, today, and tomorrow...
What are thoughts?...What are feelings?...What are ideas?...Science has made the effort to study the mind to the physical and chemical processes of the brain, but what have they found...We are more than just random thoughts...We are more than just our feelings...We are more than just our ideas...God created us and did make us rational...We have some knowledge...And we know that there are Absolute Truths that do exist...In math one plus one always equals two, anywhere and at anytime...Believing in universal truths, help us believe in the logic and rational behind it (in the why do we believe it -which forms our belief)...Man knows the difference in rational and irrational behavior...Man being rational does exist...Being rational comes from somewhere, our history, or from God...Most likely from God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit...The other choice of man being rational comes from evolution and this is how we luckily and randomly evolved...Man evolved to think rationally and logically...Truth and reason are not material in nature, they are abstract and intangible and somehow universal and have always existed...These things that cannot be touched or felt...Somehow, Absolute Truths exists everywhere and at all times and these Truths are unfailing, and these universal truths did not evolve -they have always been here...One plus one being two has always been here, since the beginning...
Truth, logic, and reason cannot be based on evolution...It seems to me, they have always been here...They have always existed...Random events and random chance are the basis for most of the years of mankind, if one believes in the theory of evolution...But we know that truth cannot come from non-truths...That is not logical...Nor can logic come from non-logic, and reason cannot come from non-reason...Truth, reason, and logic come from somewhere or Someone beyond randomness...Truth, reason, and logic are beyond evolving and evolution -because they have always existed...Truth, reason, and logic seem to come from God....No truth or logic or reason can be a truth or fact or logical, if its basis and foundation is based on randomness...
