The Whole Truth!

Click here to listen to blog

God wants everyone to be saved and to know the whole truth, which is,

There is only one God,

and Christ Jesus

is the only one

who can bring us

to God.

Jesus was truly human,

and he gave himself

to rescue all of us.

God showed us this at the right time.

This is why God chose me to be a preacher and an apostle of the good news. I am telling the truth. I am not lying. God sent me to teach the Gentiles about faith and truth.

1 Timothy 2:4-7

What an amazing claim! The apostle Paul put the "whole truth" in thirty one words in English.

"There is only one God and Christ Jesus is the only one who can bring us to God. Jesus was truly human and He gave Himself to rescue all of us!"

We often make the Gospel way too complicated. Who God is and Jesus being the only way to God is followed by what Jesus did on the Cross. Once you have those things firmly planted in your heart you have grasped "the whole truth."

Everything else comes from those fundamental truths. Anything that contradicts or violates one of them is not from God.

Never forget Jesus is the only one who can bring you to God. There are not many ways to God. There is only one way and there is only one God. One day you will bow before Him because the Bible says "every knee" will bow. Your choice is this: You can decide whether you will bow in Faith or in Fear.

"Lord, may the whole truth fill my heart. Help me to remember those thirty one words so that I can tell others and so that I will never drift from knowing and pleasing You. Amen."
