noun Law

gospel truth鈥?


鈥搉oun an unquestionably true statement, fact, etc.





Truth can have a variety of meanings, from the state of being the case, being in accord with a particular fact or reality, being in accord with the body of real things, events, actuality, or fidelity to an original or to a standard. In archaic usage it could be fidelity, constancy or sincerity in action, character, and utterance. The term has no single definition about which a majority of professional philosophers and scholars agree, and various theories and views of truth continue to be debated.





To me truth means the truth in the consideration that none of it is false, thus it shall be true.





But for sworn testimony of the whole truth is an additional condition of not misleading by conscientious omission of truthful evidence.


For an example of a sworn testimony:


I solemnly, sincerely and truly declare and affirm that I will tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me God.
