Summary

This quote suggests that all truth originates from God. When a person comes to embody and express truth, it is not because they possess it inherently, but rather because they possess a level of openness and transparency that allows them to reveal the truth that comes from God. In essence, it suggests that individuals can only act as conduits for truth and understanding, rather than claiming it as their own creation.
