Spiritual Truth is hidden in plain view. Christ spoke in parables - tiny myths - to reveal truth so that only those who had "ears to hear" would.
Likewise the Scriptures are just text on paper to many - but to those in whom the Spirit dwells, the Truth is brought alive within. Without that first, direct Spiritual revelation that "Jesus Christ is Lord" - one cannot hear or see. It is the "Rosetta stone" for Truth.
As hosepipe would say, is God cool or what?
True.. without that epiphany, truth is hieroglyphics..
i.e. pretty pictures, pictogram's, theory.. even opinion or qualia..
But with the Rosetta stone, the conversation becomes transcendent of time.. truth becomes knowable and doable.. Because if "its" true.. it was true, then, as well as now.. else its not true at all.. Theory is not truth, theory is merely the Question asked.. The truth is an/the answer to the question.. i.e. What is gravity?... Nobody knows.. We just know that it is..
