Truth
I agree with you about 1 Cor. 13:12, that we cannot be
all-knowing.
But I think you are making a distinction between being
all-knowing, and simply being able to
discern between true and untrue. Will we know the secrets of the universe?
Will we ever know for sure who the Nefalim are in Genesis 6? What precisely
happened to the Dinosaurs? No, if the Bible doesn't tell us. God has not
offered a revelation concerning those things.
But the Bible has offered
a revelation concering Himself and His son. Do you see the difference? And
Jesus promised that we would be led into all truth.
I should have
clarified the question before, so I'll do it now: what I meant by my initial
question was, "Do you think it is possible to know when a statement is true or
not?"

yes; ppl not only know (the)
truth partially, ppl understand it partially;
"knowledge itself is comprised also of
[e.g., Lance's] elements [&] it has categories (..like 'myth'
& 'fact') which are
its [interesting] parts"
[Can we] know truth, Gary? I
want to understand you correctly.
