, today I want to share with you this topic, The word of God is true. The Bible, being the Word of the one true God, is the truth on which we can base our lives without the fear of being disappointed. Therefore, we will know a little about this topic.
The word of God is as necessary for our lives as milk is for newborns, we will continue to see what else the Word is. What we are going to read happened during the investigation of Jesus before Pilate (John 18: 33-38). During that investigation, Pilate asked a question that many people had probably done since then. Pilate asked that question in answering Jesus saying that he had come into the world to bear witness to the truth (John 18:37), and that it can be found in John 18:38.
John 18:38
"Pilate said to him: What is the truth?"
Pilate's question is not at all uncommon. Many people, and in fact many of us, may have asked at some point in our lives. Therefore, it is vital to find an answer to that question. The answer comes in John 17.
There Jesus Christ a little before his arrest prayed to God and said:
John 17:14, 17
"I have given you [the disciples] your word ..... Sanctify them in your truth; Your word is truth."
The answer to the question about the truth is very simple. THE WORD OF GOD IS TRUTH. It is that Word that speaks of Jesus Christ, "the way, the truth and the life" (John 14: 6) and of the wonderful things that he accomplished for us. It is that Word that says that if you confess the Lord Jesus and believe that God raised Him from the dead you will be saved (Romans 10: 9). It is not just a positive phrase, it is not another religious word; it's true. If you do it you will be saved and if you do not do it surely you will continue without salvation. The truth is true. You can not change it, you can not alter it. It is UNALTERATED. You can only accept or reject it.
On the other hand, lies have a thousand facets. Hundreds of ideas, philosophies and religions go around claiming a place in our minds. The period of a lifetime would be enough to count the birth and death of dozens of them. Man needs to continually update his philosophies and theories to be "in agreement" with time. If they had been true they would not need updating. The truth is still true today, tomorrow and after a thousand or millions of years. And the WORD OF GOD, the truth, is the only one that has eternal duration.
1 Peter 1:23
"Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God that lives and abides forever."
1 Peter 1:25
"But the word of the Lord stands forever, and this is the word that has been announced through the gospel."
The Word of God being true and backed by a God that does not change is certainly the most secure foundation for our lives and the only thing we can learn from without fear of our failing.
That is why we must take care of the Bible since there is written all the truth, of our Lord therefore we must respect it, love it, and teach the person that has great importance. The word of God is life.
The Bible, is:
The truth,
The most exalted of God
Food for life
Milk for growth
The source of joy
Lamp at our feet
Teach, redarguir, correct, instruct in justice
Very pure
