Whole Truth in 31 Words!




First of all, I ask you to pray for everyone. Ask God to help and bless them all, and tell God how thankful you are for each of them.  Pray for kings and others in power, so that we may live quiet and peaceful lives as we worship and honor God.  This kind of prayer is good, and it pleases God our Savior.  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.

1 Timothy 2: 1 - 5

Sometimes in a court of law you will hear someone promise to tell “the truth, the WHOLE TRUTH, and nothing but the truth.”  These verses from 1 Timothy clearly say that God wants everyone to be saved and to know the WHOLE TRUTH.  Then the Holy Spirit inspired Paul to put the WHOLE TRUTH in one verse.  And here it is: 1 Timothy 2:5!

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.

There it is: The WHOLE TRUTH in 31 words!  Every other scripture in the Bible provides testimony to the oneness of God, the mission of Jesus to bring lost mankind to God and the sacrifice He made to rescue us from Hell!

Every other true thing affirms the reality of those 31 words and every false assertion attempts to deny them! 

If you are looking for a good verse to memorize, try 1 Timothy 2:5.  


“Lord Jesus, may the WHOLE TRUTH fill my heart and guide my life today and every day until You come!  Praise Your Holy Name, now and forever.  Amen.”
