John 3:21
King James Version
10 Jun 2026
“But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.”
ἀλήθεια
A-letheia — literally un-hidden, un-concealed. Truth in Greek is the thing that has been uncovered, brought into the open. Jesus says the truth will set you free — not just knowing it, but the truth itself doing something in you. When what is hidden is revealed, chains fall.
