He could not have possibly shown this because the lack of provability 
makes the expression unsound thus untrue.

Unless you start with
premises known to be true (or axioms essentially stipulated to be true)

and have
a complete inference chain from these premises (or a formal proof)

to the conclusion (or consequence) then the whole

argument (or WFF) is

unsound (or untrue).

The sound deducive inference model forms the correct axiomatic basis of 
truth.

It is the the notion of a formal system that would implement the 
axiomatic basis of truth.
