"The Gospel of John is the most hated book of the Bible, and the most beloved-for the same reason, namely, that it was written that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you might have life through his name. .. The concept of truth, of eternal, immutable truth, is of first importance to Christian-ity, for without it the Gospel would not be true."

Yet how is Christ, who is the truth, related to the truths of the Bible? That is the question Gordon Clark answers in this book. His answer explains why contemporary religion has little to do with Christianity, for religion has moved far away from what the Bible, especially the Gospel of John, says about truth.
