"Truth is singular and absolute." This means that there are no "shades of grey" with respect to the operation of truth in both the spiritual and physical world. This is a difficult concept to apply in everyday life, because we as a society have become inurred to the facts that support this concept; many don't believe these facts because we have been fed lies about the concept of Truth, that make us believe that it a purely personal issue. Truth is NOT personal, it is ubiquitous in that it doesn't care if you believe it or not, it simply is what it is! Math, the Scientific Method, biology of the sexes, light as both particle and wave form, the planets as spheres, ad infinitum, demonstrate every day that people can believe whatever they want, and it doesn't change the application of truth in the world.
The same is true when dealing with the spiritual instructions found in the Bible. Both Truth and Lies exist inside the Bible, ref, Matt. 13:24-30, The Parable of the Wheat and the Weeds.
Christians must believe that the Bible is the inerrant, inspired word of God from cover to cover, because to not do so opens the way for a person to have to DECIDE what is true and what isn't. This is an intollerable situation for Christians, because they want a 'simple faith' that says that they are saved in spite of their sin, even though Jesus never taught that concept.
The Truth of what Jesus said to His own eyewitness disciples is supplanted by the words of an 'apostle' to the Gentiles that has changed everything about salvation and eternal life. Having to choose to believe the words of Jesus over any other words makes this 'other' salvation impossible.
You can find Truth ONLY in the Law, the Prophets, and the words of Jesus. When you learn THOSE words and compare everthing else to them the LIES taught as Truth are revealed in stark relief.
