The Fake Newscaster (1 of 8)
Series: Fake News

Ezekiel 28:11-19
If you have your Bible, please turn in the Old Testament to the Book of Ezekiel, Ezekiel chapter 28. We begin a new series today that I've entitled, Fake News, Fake News: Exposing the Lies of the Devil.
Now, fake news is something we hear a lot about today in the news. And when we hear news, it's difficult to know, is this true or is this false? I looked up on the internet a definition of fake news and it said this: ''Fake news is journalistic propaganda that consist of deliberate misinformation spread in print, broadcast, or social media with the intent to mislead in order to gain financially, politically, or in some other way.''

And Jesus, in John chapter 8, was arguing with those Jews, and they were coming at Him. They were having this discourse, and it was getting, no doubt, pretty heated. And they said to Him when they said, ''Well, we have our Father, and that Father is God. We were not born of fornication,'' which was a slam against Jesus because people knew that Jesus was the son of Mary. They even called Him that and asked Him, ''Are You the son of Mary'' - not the son of Joseph - ''The son of Mary. You're the illegitimate kid,'' because news got there that Mary was pregnant before she was married. So, they said to Jesus, ''We're not born of fornication. We have one Father, even God.'' And Jesus answered in John 8:44 and sai ...
