If you are saying God/Jesus reveals truth like no other - is this just saying God/Jesus is an optimized way to truth but not really the only way?
You kind of answered how truth creates freedom. Accepting responsibility is a form of truth - like there are no lies when you are responsible. Lies generate the opposite of freedom - one becomes a slave to keeping the secrets.
There could be truths that help us grow up. Like when someone stops beliving they don't have the right to speak up, or that they aren't beautiful, or any other limiting behaviourial belief is not producing freedom. Once the truth is experienced (that you can speak up or that you are beautiful) you become more whole and grow up some because of the truth.
