Truth

By Paula Williamson, guest writer

It’s hard to know what the truth is nowadays. The right, the left, conspiracy theories, LGBTQ, BLM, ANTIFA, you name it. Everyone has an opinion about what they believe is the truth. What is interesting is that they are all different. Also interesting is that their truths keep changing. PROVERBS 14:12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. So how do we know the truth?

It Is Written

JOHN 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

JOHN 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

HEBREWS 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

JOHN 17:17 Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.

Unchanging Truth

I don’t know about you, but when I leave this world, I do not want to discover that what I believed and taught my children and friends was false. I’d rather believe a book that has not been proven wrong in 3,000 years than any of man’s progressive beliefs.

Prayer

Lord, in a world where everything changes like the wind, I want to grasp You and Your Word with all my heart. I want my family and friends to have something sure, steadfast, and proven to hold on to, something that has weathered the winds of time. You and Your Word have done that in my life and in the lives of many others who have gone before us. I have heard that the highest form of pride is exalting what we think above what You say. Help us become a generation that returns to You and Your Word. 

Takeaway

God’s truth is unchanging.
