Telling People About Jesus

Although this clip is quite humorous, there is some rational truth to this. Sometimes us as Christians we try every trend or fad concerning evangelism that we can get our hands on. We implement different methodology and strategies all to reach the same goal: share the unending love of Christ. Often we try the most pragmatic strategy we have. Using a five phase monologue or a multi-colored bracelet.

I wonder if we're doing it wrong. What if we just shared what was on our hearts? If Christ has truly and miraculously changed our lives, wouldn't we want to to share what has happened? Maybe I'm wrong, but maybe I'm right. I challenge you that next time God opens an opportunity for you to witness to someone that you just share sincerely what God has done in your life and His life-changing love that He has for every single person.

True Love

Romans 8: 37-39

"37No, in all things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."

What is Truth?

Webster's Dictionary defines truth as:

Truth\, n.; pl. Truths. [OE. treuthe, trouthe, treowpe, AS. tre['o]w?. See True; cf. Troth, Betroth.

1. The quality or being true; as:
(a) Conformity to fact or reality; exact accordance with that which is, or has been; or shall be.
(b) Conformity to rule; exactness; close correspondence with an example, mood, object of imitation, or the like. Plows, to go true, depend much on the truth of the ironwork. --Mortimer.
(c) Fidelity; constancy; steadfastness; faithfulness. Alas! they had been friends in youth, But whispering tongues can poison truth. --Coleridge.
(d) The practice of speaking what is true; freedom from falsehood; veracity.

If this will not suffice, it must appear That malice bears down truth. --Shak.

2. That which is true or certain concerning any matter or subject, or generally on all subjects; real state of things; fact; verity; reality.

Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbor. --Zech. viii. 16.
I long to know the truth here of at large. --Shak.
The truth depends on, or is only arrived at by, a legitimate deduction from all the facts which are truly material. --Coleridge.

3. A true thing; a verified fact; a true statement or proposition; an established principle, fixed law, or the like; as, the great truths of morals.

Even so our boasting . . . is found a truth. --2 Cor. vii. 14.

4. Righteousness; true religion.

Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. --John i. 17.
Sanctify them through thy truth; thy word is truth. --John xvii. 17.

In a turh, in reality; in fact. Of a truth, in reality; certainly. To do truth, to practice what God commands.

He that doeth truth cometh to the light. --John iii. 21 .

John 18: 37, 38 says:

"Then Pilate said to him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world— to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice." Pilate said to him, "What is truth?"..."

Jesus said himself, "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life..." So I ask you as Pilate asked Christ, what is truth? In what do we find complete and absolute truth? In this postmodern culture, where all truth is relative (thus dead), how does one find what is truly true? Do we believe the truth? No word is used more in the New Testament then the Koine Greek word for truth: αλήθεια (aletheia). By any consideration, we know that God's truth is vitally important to our Christian life. The centrality of the Bible is the truth of the gospel. Truth is integral to our spiritual life. There are countless references that I can post here that focus on truth, the truth of the gospel, the truth of God, the truth of Scripture, the truth of Jesus Christ as the Son of God. We have vetoed our inborn desire to seek The Truth in our day-to-day lives and have settled for opinions that are relative to ourself. As Christians we stand upon The Truth as our foundation. But if we don't have truth then what do we have? Answer: lies.
