True Truth John 14:6 2 Timothy 3:16-17 2 Peter 2:1-3 07.18.14

TRUE TRUTH

BREAD

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

John 14:6 (NIV)

16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV)

1 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

2 Peter 2:1-3 (NIV)

“It is all too plainly apparent men are willing to forego the old for the sake of the new.  But commonly it is found in theology that that which is true is not new, and that which is new is not true.”    Robert Shindler
“The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection.  And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others.
Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.”   A.W. Tozer

“We Christians too often substitute prayer for playing the game. Prayer is good; but when used as a substitute for obedience, it is nothing but a blatant hypocrisy, a despicable Pharisaism...To your knees, man! And to your Bible! Decide at once! Don't hedge! Time flies! Cease your insults to God, quit consulting flesh and blood. Stop your lame, lying, and cowardly excuses. Enlist!”  C. T. Studd

HEART SAVOR

  • ·      God’s Word is Truth.  Sanctify me with the Truth Lord Jesus.
  • ·      I can rely on the Truth.  Wisdom is always proved right by her actions.  The wages of my fleshly way (sinful) is death.
  • ·      I should take everything I hear and put it through the sieve of God’s Word before I take it to heart and make it my belief.   Like the Bereans who were of more noble character than the Thessalonians because they received Paul’s message and examined the Scriptures to see if what he taught was true.  Seriously, what is man’s opinion?
