We should just have a big Israel thread where everyone says the same things that everyone is aware of over and over again, while proving nothing, digging into nothing, discerning nothing, and being open to nothing.
Truth says the same thing over and over. Truth doesn't change.
The proof had always been available to people with an honest heart.
Truth will continue to repeat until Jesus returns. This is the mercy of GOD. Giving all men an opportunity to repent and be saved.
There’s things I probably know better here than some people, and things other people definitely know better than me, but not a single one of us knows the truth of the situation as a whole.
Rich Mullins said once, “only God knows the Truth, the rest of us are just guessing.”
Not so.
God revealed His Truth through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. It is written that the Holy Spirit guides us to all the Truth.
The Holy Spirit doesn't guess. He already knows.
The Holy Spirit abides in the heart of the believer of Jesus Christ.
Folk jump through hoops to validate liars myths and fables.
They resist the truth of Jesus Christ.
A small correction on your statement has a massive impact on resulting perspective.

Until it is revealed, to a specific person, it isn’t known to that person.
For example,
Folk jump through hoops to validate liars myths and fables.
There are forty fivethousand Christian denominations worldwide (I personally count Catholicism as a denomination). If those differences were on relatively minor differences in manner of worship it would be one thing, but they are based on things like the nature of God, the path to salvation, major disagreements on things that God does and does not command us to do, etc.
Even among the approach that people in my school of thought follow (no one should claim a denomination), I tend to think that the Amish do several things better in practice that many of us don’t even consider.
Point being, if the Truth was known, from having been revealed, then there would be no such disagreements, or where there were such, Christians would be working toward a known, agreed point.
Which goes back to my original point, yes, The Truth doesn’t change, but we don’t know The Truth.
1 Corinthians 13
8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
