The Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth (9 of 15)
by James Merritt
1. We live not in one world but in reality two worlds. We live in a world that is seen and we live in a world that is unseen. There is a world that is visible. There is a world that is invisible, there is the physical world. There is the spiritual world. There is that world that is natural and there is that world which is supernatural. 2. The physical world that we can see is in a real mess. Vouch of our world is engulfed in the flames of revolution and rebellion. Other parts of our world are sinking in a sea of decadence and disillusionment. But the real battle taking place in the world today is a battle that is being fought in reality in the spiritual world , you see...
The Word of Truth
by Jerry Vines
A great deal is said about the subject of words in this passage which I have read. Words have tremendous power. In the book of Proverbs, we are told, death and life are in the power of the tongue. Sometimes words can be very helpful. They can heal. They can uplift. They can encourage. On other occasions words can be very, very damaging. They can tear down. They can destroy. They can enslave. As we have studied I and II Timothy I have noticed that reference is made from time to time, to ''sound'' words. The word is the word from which we get the word, hygiene. Hygienic words, words that create health. I think about...
The Belt of Truth (1 of 6)
by Frank Damazio
Introduction: We have examined Ephesians 6:10-13, we now go on to Ephesians 6:14 and begin our study of each piece of the armor of God for the believer. The believer is to put on the ''whole armor'' of God, leave no piece out. It is God alone who knows the enemy and exactly the piece that is essential to you if you are to continue standing. Every single part of this armor is absolutely essential. The first thing you have to learn is that you are not in a position to pick and choose which piece you will use or which piece you will leave out. The whole includes every single piece; never neglect details. Leave no unguarded piece in the soul. Each piece...
The Way, the Truth, and the Life
by J. Gerald Harris
In my hand I have a tract that was given to me by Greg Brezina. In this tract Greg Brezina tells how he came to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Greg Brezina played football for the Atlanta Falcons. He was on the Falcons team in 1978 when they played Philadelphia in the first round of the NFC playoffs. Greg Brezina was paid to tackle running backs and block kicks. Mike Michel played football for the Philadelphia Eagles. He was paid to kick extra points and field goals. In this playoff game in 1978, two seconds were remaining in the game. Atlanta was ahead 14 to 13, but Philadelphia had the ball. They decided to go for a field...
Abide in the Truth
by Robert Walker
Around 1528, Martin Luther, beset on every side by terror and trouble, the death of his dear daughter, his deepest melancholia, the siege of Vienna by the Turk, wrote the great battle hymn of the reformation, in which he confesses that no matter what the world, the flesh or the devil would wrest away from him, goods, honor, child or spouse, he was free because all his strength was in that little word that could fell all his enemies, that little word, God's word, the Lord Jesus Christ himself! The Son had made him free, he was free indeed! The Lord Jesus presented Himself as the Son of God and the light of the world to the religious leaders of His day....
The Value of Truth (4 of 7)
by Stan Coffey
We've been talking about values. Today I want to talk about the value of truth. I was reading an article in this week's Amarillo Globe News that talked about how Americans no longer value the truth. They were talking about an entertainer who went on the Jay Leno program and this particular young lady made up a story that wasn't true, yet she went on that program and told it for truth. When a lot of people found out it wasn't true that it was just for entertainment, they were really upset and confused and she said, "Well, after all, it's just entertainment." That's just an example about how Americans today are so careless about...
The Word of Truth (10 of 14)
by Chris Walls
John here focuses on the belief in God's truth. He emphasizes the need to teach sound doctrinal and the greater need to obey that doctrine. Scripture always presents stern warnings against false doctrine. Satan, since the Garden of Eden has attempted to distort and deny God's word. He is the ultimate force behind all-false teachers and false doctrine. Jesus warned in Matt 24:10-11 ''At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.''Jude 1:3 wrote about following sound teaching when he wrote, ''Dear friends, although I was very eager to...
The Gospel Truth
by Adrian Rogers
Would you take your bible this morning and turn to First Corinthians chapter fifteen and if you know anything about God's word right away you know that is the great chapter in the bible on the resurrection of Jesus Christ and right in the very heart of the gospel is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Today I want to speak to you on what I'm going to call the gospel truth, the gospel truth. Every now and then when a man wants to underscore the fact that he's telling the truth he'll say something and he'll say that's the gospel truth and generally it's not even truth, he tries to back it up that way but it may be true and still not be gospel truth. It may...
Telling the Truth
by Dr. Ed Young
We know that swearing and the hearing of-oaths; making commitments and covenants are common today - and so it was in the days of Jesus Christ. The Jews were an oath-making people. They would swear they would make a covenant because this was prior to the time of a lot of legal instrumentality. Primarily, it was just a verbal, interpersonal kind of relationship. And therefore, when you made an agreement with someone - over any issue - the parties would swear. They would swear before God and they would swear before those witnesses that they would not do that - or - they would do that! And so we see the setting of our scripture...
Eyes to See the Truth
by Robert Dawson
Peter Falk (1927-2011) was an actor who played a variety of comedic and dramatic roles throughout his carry. One of his best known roles, characters, was the eccentric, rumpled but always triumphant detective Colombo, which you can still watch on Sunday nights on MeTv. In real life Falk had a glass eye. He lost his eye due to an operation when he was just 3 years old to remove a cancerous tumor. In spite of his missing eye, he was a high school athlete. He had one baseball story he loved to tell. In one game, after being called out at third base, he removed his glass eye and handed it to the umpire and said, ''Here. You'll do better...
How Can I Demonstrate and Live out the Truth? (43 of 44)
by Patrick Edwards
For almost three years we've been talking as a church about the calling we have to represent God in our community and serve Him in His mission both near and far. Our present series, the Church at Ephesus, has really highlighted this calling and has focused on the mission of the Church. If you think back to a year ago when we saw the planting and early years of this church in the book of Acts you'll remember how the health of the church was dependent upon its right doctrine and right practice. It was vital for believers to know the truth of God but to also be changed by that truth and live it out. I think about in Acts 19 we saw how the...
Handling Truth
by David Cawston
Jesus makes a profound statement to his disciples that reflects bondage and unhappiness. If Truth sets us free then lack thereof produces the opposite of freedom. - Bondage, unhappiness etc. God Calls us as his disciples to be Handlers of truth. We are so impacted by the world around us having been born in it and continually being influenced by it. Its philosophies and ways of thinking have hindered us from entering into the full freedom that Christ has for us. Look at the lies that are propagated to us by the world system and think of the pitfalls they lead us into. Making mistakes is awful, when the truth is that people make mistakes all...
Truth Matters
by Terry J. Hallock
Proverbs 23:23 contains the most powerful guidepost that we can ever learn. ''Buy the truth and do not sell it; get wisdom, discipline and understanding.'' Without personal possession of truth it will make no difference what you do following your graduation from this institution. You may climb the heights of intellectual achievement yet without truth you will be no more than a rudderless vessel filled with meaningless information. You may gather financial wealth yet without truth you will be no more than an empty depository for lifeless things. You may be showered with notoriety yet without truth that recognition and fame will be of little...
An Inconvenient Truth
by Jerry Watts
This past week I heard several things which I think will impact me for years to come, if not until the day I die. First, Tom Eliff began his messages by telling us exactly what the invitation would be at the end of his message and second, he spoke to us about the altar which will be open for an altar call. With every word he spoke in explaining the altar, my heart pumped vigorously because of the truth contain in his appeal. Some of you are unfamiliar with the altar because it is not a part of your life and you are missing one of the greatest spiritual joys that you could ever know. At the altar is where the Christian life finds meaning, purpose...
Liberating Truth
by John Barnett
As you open your copy of God's Divine Truth this morning, turn to Psalm 19:9. History records one tragic life lived off the pathway of truth. Let’s heed it! Who really cared? His was a routine admission to busy Bellevue Hospital. A charity case, one among hundreds. A bum from the Bowery with a slashed throat. The Bowery...last stop before the morgue. Synonym of filth, loneliness, cheap booze, drugs, and disease. The derelict’s name was misspelled on the hospital form, but then what good is a name when the guy’s a bum. The age was also incorrect. He was 38, not 39. The details of what had happened in the predawn of...
The Truth about Ministry and Money
by Rick White
Introduction: Listen to what some famous people have had to say about the subject of money: 1. When I was young I use to think that money was the most important thing in the world. Now that I am old, I know it. - Oscar Wilde 2. When a fellow says it ain't the money, it's the principle of the thing, you can believe that it's the money. 3. I don't like money actually, but it quiets my nerves. - Joe Lewis 4. When Sophie Tucker turned 69 she gave this advice: From birth to age 18 a girl needs good parents, between 18 and 35 she needs good looks, from 35 -55 she needs a good personality, and from 55 on she needs cash baby! 5. Happiness...
Graceful Truth (4 of 4)
by James Merritt
1. Today, I am going to share something with you that I have never shared publically. It happened when I was a junior in high school. I am still embarrassed and ashamed even to admit this. In fact, I never, ever, told my parents. I have never told any of my family except Teresa. When you find out what it is some of you may laugh and say, ''That's it?'' It was a big thing to me then and it is still a big thing to me now. 2. Not to brag, but I was always an excellence student. I was a straight A student, graduated very high in my class, and graduated with honors from college. I wasn't the smartest, but nobody outworked me. Frankly, I prided myself...
