Jesus declares in John 14:6, “I am the way and the truth and the life.” The Bible consistently warns against falsehood and self-deception (Ephesians 4:25; 2 Corinthians 13:8). Some may worry that VR blurs the line between reality and illusion.
For instance, Colossians 1:15-17 describes Christ as the one “by whom all things were created” and “in whom all things hold together.” This cosmic Christology suggests a purpose for the Incarnation that transcends the remedy of sin, emphasizing union and participation in the divine life.
Romans 5:3-5 explains, “We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.” The Bible recognizes that enduring problems with steadfastness leads to spiritual growth and greater hope.
In Genesis 3, the serpent questions God’s command to Adam and Eve, subtly altering God’s words to sow doubt and deception. “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” (Genesis 3:1) The serpent’s distortion led to humanity’s fall.
