Yo soy el camino y la verdad y la vida (Juan 14:6).
Jesús es “la verdad” porque siempre dijo la verdad y vivió conforme a ella, pero también porque cumplió las decenas de profecías que se escribieron acerca del Mesías. El apóstol Pablo lo expresó con las siguientes palabras: “No importa cuántas sean las promesas de Dios, han llegado a ser Sí mediante él” (2 Cor. 1:20). Además, la “sombra de las buenas cosas por venir”, que se encuentra en la Ley mosaica, se convirtió en una realidad al llegar Jesús (Heb. 10:1; Col. 2:17). Todas las profecías apuntan a él, y todas ellas aclaran el papel central que desempeña en el cumplimiento del propósito divino (Rev. 19:10). Para presenciar el cumplimiento de dicho propósito, debemos seguir a Cristo. Jesús es “la vida” porque él compró a la humanidad con su sangre. Mediante “Cristo Jesús nuestro Señor”, Jehová nos da el regalo de la vida eterna (Rom. 6:23).

I am the way and the truth and the life.—John 14:6.
Jesus is “the truth” not only because he always spoke and lived the truth but also because all the prophecies written about the Messiah—scores of them—were fulfilled in him. “No matter how many the promises of God are,” wrote the apostle Paul, “they have become Yes by means of him.” (2 Cor. 1:20) Even “a shadow of the good things to come” contained in the Mosaic Law became a reality in Christ Jesus. (Heb. 10:1; Col. 2:17) Jesus is the focal point on which all prophecies concentrate, and they shed light on his central role in the outworking of Jehovah’s purpose. (Rev. 19:10) To benefit from the fulfillment of what God has purposed for us, we need to follow the Messiah. Jesus is “the life” because he has bought the human race with his lifeblood, and everlasting life is a gift that God gives “by Christ Jesus our Lord.”—Rom. 6:23.
Examining the Bible Scriptures Daily, Such instructions gave Jesus ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ so that he would ‘know how to answer the tired one with a word.’ (Isa. 30:20; 50:4; Matt. 11:28-30) Being awakened to timely counsel from the Word of God each morning will not only help you to cope with your own problems but also equip you with ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ to help others.”
