When is the truth not the truth? When it's not God's truth!

I was reading about the idea that we can hold onto lesser versions of truth, which we call our own truth.
Our various life experiences, with love and life, show us our held onto truths, or beliefs, and the idea is for us to then change these old truths/beliefs into better ones for us.
My first thought was, well, truth is truth, is this idea rubbish, how can we change our truths into better ones?
Can truth be changed, or bettered?
No, only our mistaken ideas about what truth is can be changed.
Truth to me remains always the unchanging truth of God's being in us through his love, but our own ideas of truth, not yet truth, the same as God's truths, entrap us until we fully embrace God's truths, and so then we are thereby set free.
Until then, our lesser truths must continually raise their bar until they become God's truth in us, the same as they are in God.
So, what the guy said probably does make some type of sense then after all.
What do you think?

Does our own version of truth, actually contain any lies within it?

The truth of God is found in the purity of his love.
When you love, knowledge, truth, and wisdom all come into you then, and love is the key to finding God's truth then.
We don't know what is God's truth, until we love, and have God living in us, as this love.
We can never find it, truth, on our own.
We cannot know what is truth, unless we have God's light inside of us showing it to us.

@innertalks Correctly said so.. But love in general right? Not like romantic one?

@anya12adwi Yes, I mean the spiritual type of deep love of which God loves us with.
Romantic love, I think, is still a part of God's love, but God's love goes far wider, deeper, and richer even, than any Human romance ever could ever do so.

I think our understanding of truth varies with the level of our spiritual awareness.
That is why we have different experiences of our creator.
When we have a higher appreciation of the blessings showered on us, we lead a spiritual life that our creator has his indelible imprint everywhere and what see around us reflects his enduring love for his creation.
With that approach, we can step-by-step rise in consciousness and inch closer to God's truth - siva

Yes, I agree with that. As we increase awareness, or love more, our understanding of truth increases too.

@Shiva49 Yes, awareness, and increasing our awareness is important, but it is not the be all and end all of things either though.
To be aware is to be connected to those other parts of God around you, and yet this connection is useless if it just remains as a connection of awareness.
The connection must be then followed up with sending love down that connection to make it a truly real one.
Love, only love connects. Awareness is a mere probe of loves.

@innertalks I believe an increased awareness leads us to be truly part of creation and merge with it to the extent we don't feel separate from it. Then all the uncertainties are dissolved within the process of the oneness of creation - siva
