ListenDaily - 08 May 2009: What is the truth?
I have, and will continue to, affirm the coherency of the Scriptures. Look at how they come together!
Jesus said, "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (NIV)
John 8:31-32 (find any passage at www.Biblegateway.org)
"Then you will know the truth..."
Ah, then -- the age old question: What is the truth? Do we have to guess? Of course not. We do, however have to follow the steps:
Holding onto/abiding in Jesus' teaching.
Grow as disciples.
Then we will know the truth -- "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)
Jesus is the truth that sets us free! "And if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." (John 8:36)
AMEN!

Questions:
1. What does this say about the truth? 2. Is this coincidence or coherence? 3. Do you know about the Truth or know the Truth?
INTERESTING THOUGHT:
"To teach in order to lead others to faith
is the task of every preacher and of each believer."
Thomas Aquinas
