divine truth
God's absolute knowledge
Divine truth is truth believed to originate from God or a higher power rather than human reasoning or observation.
Religious texts, prophecies, and revelations are considered sources of divine truth by believers: She accepted the scripture as divine truth.
The phrase often implies absolute certainty beyond question or debate, which can make it dismissive in secular contexts: He spoke as if his opinions were divine truth.
