Description

Jesus taught his disciples, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6) and…”Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:32). It’s from this scripture that this new painting takes its title: “AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE”

In this piece, the joyful image of Jesus symbolizes the Truth; the truth of one who understands and lives with an awareness of our own divine nature and oneness with our source.

The dove released by the figure of Jesus and taking flight represents the freedom that true understanding offers us. To understand as Christ does, that the Kingdom of Heaven is within each of us, is to experience a liberation that transcends this egoic world. We can soar above fear, judgment, and misunderstanding. Our spiritual wings will enable us to enjoy the freedom that accompanies abiding peace, true happiness, and enlightened wisdom. Truly, the truth will make us free!
