As a Christian, which is more important, love or truth? If love and no truth then how can that be love? if truth then isn't that love? I am curious if anyone has scripture to support either or; both?

Ugh. Love and truth go hand in hand. You have a good head knowledge of God's Word...now let the Holy Spirit work it through you. Don't lead with knowledge...be led by the Spirit.

John 18:37
Then Pilate said, “So you are a king!” Jesus replied, “You say that I am a king. For this reason I was born, and for this reason I came into the world – to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.”

A lifeguard tells us where the rip currents are, might even blow the whistle of rebuke for our own benefit, but the consequences.

Tie that with The Greatest Commandment and the Second that is like it...and what do you have? Love and Truth.

How can love lead to truth? Is Christianity more about love or truth?

It's the Truth that leads us to Love.
