I take absolute truth to be a synonym for objective truth. That is, truth that is discovered, not created.

Stating that god is the truth means that the truth has not be discovered, at least according to your definition of truth.

God has always been the easy answer, but never the truth.

You are correct in stating that the truth must be discovered, but creating a temporary answer along the way does no one any good in finding the truth.
