I dont think so if false is the opposite of truth and natural law always has its opposite

Jehovah is described as “the God of truth,” and he said of himself: “I do not change.” (Psalm 31:5; Malachi 3:6) About God, Jesus said: “Your word is truth.” (John 17:17) That truth is revealed in the divinely inspired Scriptures, the Bible. It instructs us and equips us “for every good work.”—2 Timothy 3:16, 17.

Can "truth" exist without falsehood?
It can and the term describing that is called "faith".
And by the way in any philosophy study bar one we should
not mix up "truth" with the description "falsehood" (as the
latter is an obviously staged term and not recommended
to be used with truth as something discovered and invented
- out of nothing if you like (or not).
The much better philosophy question, and designation is that
of truth or FALSITY.
As in objective or subjective we may say (believers in the latter
who cannot agree on there being a true philosophy environment
are mistaken).
As it is undoubtedly true that Philosophy exists as a particular
entity the question may arise about that entity's presence, and
it's independent study, what can be worthwhile so to speak.
For example it is a subjective and behavioural falsehood to
say that the entity that is Philosophy has anything to do with
"definition-ism", and false, common "deceitfulness".
Preconceived ideas like defining something and calling something
deceitful is an ordinary (real) part of behaviour which has more
to do with "faith" than Philosophy. Hence the mistaken connection
of those behaviours with something like "falsehood" ...for ANY
term and the behaviour associated with the true writing of such
can easily be shown to be independent of something like true
Philosophy entity, a knowledge gathering area.
For anyone can have a subjective understanding and a learned
subjective knowledge that is totally different from someone
else's learned knowledge. Both frequently miss a connection
with Philosophy-area-study because of some mistake in
their learned behaviour for example.. learning from a mistake
previously made by another subjective falsehood.
And I think that I have shown previously that "subjective falsehood"
based on faith such as religious faith have more in common the
further one goes back in historical evidence so to speak (it can
be said both in faithful and secular, non-faith based historical
evidence..) . That is that it is entirely possible that the mistake
of learning something wrong (learning that a true Philosophy
knowledge area doesn't exist) was tacitly agreed between
subjectives and religions, that a Philosophy knowledge area
DOES NOT Exist.
Fortunately the truth is now that Philosophy and it's truthful,
environmentally and critically secure knowledge DOES exist
whether "Subjective philosophers" and the faithfully religious
philosophy's can agree or not.

Falsehood can exist without truth and truth can exist without falsehood. More commonly they both exist but incomplete truth can amount to falsehood when the intent is to deceive.

The concept of truth can't exist without the concept of falsehood; they define each other, but truth may be spoken without speaking falsehood. And vice versa.

Use some common sense and you aren't clever.
- The First DragonLv 71 week ago
Of course.
Imagine always telling the truth. Then imagine always lying.
Always lying would make no sense at all.
You cant have falsehood without truth.
But truth is self-sufficient without falsehood.

Can Light exist without darkness?
"Light is a Living Spirit;"
"Beams from Meher Baba;"
"The Path of the Higher Self;"

Of course it can, even though sometimes I think there is an infinite well of stupidity that people draw from.
