Jesus was the only pure and authentic “man of truth” yet, He did not possess an inflated self-view. Christ willingly placed Himself under the authority of His Father: “My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me” (John 7.16). Jesus claimed no ownership for His teaching which He delivered purely for the benefit of others. He had nothing to gain and, of course, paid a high price for His message. Jesus lost everything including His own life. Jesus proved He “is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him,” (John 7.18).
What’s not to trust?
