Rowan Williams on Truth as Person - Anglican (John 14:6)

Source: Rowan Williams60 words

"Truth in John's Gospel is not a proposition but a person. When Jesus says 'I am the truth,' He invites us not to master ideas but to be mastered by a relationship. The way is walked with Him; the truth is known through Him; the life is lived in Him." — Rowan Williams. Anglican nuance: truth is relational, not propositional.
