Truth is Jesus (person) Not a book.

The "book" is true and accurate. But the truth is the person who revealed and manifested it.. Jesus. The book points us to him, and is the bibles importance. The Spirit testifies to the reality, beauty, and truth of Jesus. However, I know people who sound like they point to a book more than they point to a person.

"In fact, even though Christians are almost always linked with Jews and Muslims as the three "peoples of the Book," there is a sense in which at least one of the three children of Abraham has gone off in a different direction. Ask Judaism where truth is revealed, and it opens the Torah. Ask Islam where truth is revealed, and it opens the Qur'an. Ask Christianity where truth is revealed, and it points not to a book but to Jesus the Christ himself...... "I am the truth."' Surely that's the most astonishing claim of human history. Jesus didn't claim to be a bringer of the truth or to have a message of truth. If that were the case, then the gospel would be nothing but information that could be grasped cognitively. But Jesus was both messenger and the message. He was both preacher and the text that was preached. To know the gospel ... to really know the gospel ... is to know him who is the good news....... I immediately immersed myself in our sacred texts and traditions and learned from them that it is dangerous to separate three things that enliven and enfaith us: Jesus, Scriptures, and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit brings Christ to life, and the Scriptures point us to Christ. Separate one from the other, and you risk writing another chapter in the history of the waylaying and wrong-footing of the Christian story." (I Am Follower. Leonard Sweet. Pg 14)
