What is truth? - Episode 7-113, April 23, 2017

Apr 23, 2017

A daily devotional through the recorded words Jesus spoke while He walked alongside us. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com.

  1. Thanks for joining me today for "A Little Walk with God." I'm your host Richard Agee.
  2. Say it enough times and it must be true. That’s what some want you to believe. But what is truth?
  3. Scripture
    1. John 18:33-37
    2. Pilate: Are You the King of the Jews?

Jesus: Are you asking Me because you believe this is true, or have others said this about Me?

Pilate: I’m not a Jew, am I? Your people, including the chief priests, have arrested You and placed You in my custody. What have You done?

Jesus: My kingdom is not recognized in this world. If this were My kingdom, My servants would be fighting for My freedom. But My kingdom is not in this physical realm.

Pilate: So You are a king?

Jesus: You say that I am king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the cosmos: to demonstrate the power of truth. Everyone who seeks truth hears My voice.

  1. Devotional
    1. I’m not a salesman for GEICO, but I love some of their commercials.
      1. Remember the one with the young lady that believes everything on the Internet must be true, just because it’s on the Internet?
      2. She argues with the man next to her and just doesn’t understand that everything on the Internet isn’t necessarily true
      3. And then the prince charming she meets on the Internet walks up for their first date
      4. He’s not what she expected, either
      5. What is truth?
    2. Webster defines truth as:
      1. The real facts about something : the things that are true
      2. Truth is most often used to mean being in accord with fact or reality, or fidelity to an original or standard. Truth may also often be used in modern contexts to refer to an idea of "truth to self," or authenticity.
      3. Humankind has been on a search for truth since Satan deceived Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden because at the moment they ate that forbidden fruit they discovered there was something in the world that was not true.
      4. Satan lied to them and we have been faced with this dilemma about what is reality and what is not ever since
    3. Pilate wants to know the truth about Jesus
      1. We want to know the same thing
      2. We want to know about God, scriptures, heaven, and hell
      3. We want to know if there is an afterlife and a judgment
      4. We want to know if what scriptures say about the endtimes is true of if what the world says is true
      5. How do we know what is true and what is not?
    4. Take a test drive
      1. Read God’s word with an open heart
      2. Let Him speak to you through His word
      3. Let Him reveal Himself to you
      4. His spirit will guide you into all truth and you will know what is real and what is not
      5. His truth will set you free
  2. If you want to learn more about my church, you can find us at SAF.church. If you like the devotional, share it with someone. If you don't, tell me. I hope you’ll join me again tomorrow for "A Little Walk with God."
