Is It True??? Jesus IS Truth!!! A Word from THE WORD!!! #328

I want to share a couple of passages that I consider to be significant with you today.  I pray that we will heed their truth as we examine our own hearts today. Jesus never minced words, nor did He condone sin!  Dig into His Word—all of it—and you will find treasures rare and wonderful.  Are you following Jesus or pursuing other things?  Salvation is free for the asking, but the journey will cost you everything.  Not a very popular message but one I think worthy of our consideration.

“Remember the word that I said unto you,

The servant is not greater than his lord.

If they have persecuted me,

they will also persecute you;

if they have kept my saying,

they will keep yours also.

21 But all these things will they do unto you

for my name’s sake,

because they know not him

that sent me.”  John 15:20-21

Now, the main passage we need to think on, asking God to help our hearts see truth, is from chapter 8.  (See Psalm 139:23-24)

“But now ye seek to kill me,

a man that hath told you the truth,

which I have heard of God:

this did not Abraham.

41 Ye do the deeds of your father.

Then said they to him,

We be not born of fornication;

we have one Father,

even God.

42 Jesus said unto them,

If God were your Father,

ye would love me:

for I proceeded forth and came from God;

neither came I of myself,

but he sent me.   

43 Why do ye not understand my speech?

even because ye cannot hear my word.

44 Ye are of your father the devil,

and the lusts of your father ye will do.

He was a murderer from the beginning,

and abode not in the truth,

because there is no truth in him.

When he speaketh a lie,

he speaketh of his own:

for he is a liar,

and the father of it.

45 And because I tell you the truth,

ye believe me not.”  John 8:40-45

Whose truth are you believing?  Jesus, Lord of all, creator of all things or the father of lies? He lied to Eve and he’s still lying to people, you and me, today.  Be sure who and what you are believing and accepting as truth.  It’s your choice, but choose wisely, there is a test.  For Jesus spoke absolute truth!  Many say He never claimed to be God, but He did, and the people who heard Him knew what He was claiming and tried to kill Him, but it wasn’t His time yet!

“My sheep hear my voice,

and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life;

and they shall never perish,

neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

29 My Father, which gave them me,

is greater than all;

and no man is able to pluck them

out of my Father’s hand.

30 I and my Father are one.

31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.”  Matthew 10:27-31

Truth!!!

Amen and Amen!!!
