Don't Exchange The Truth For A Lie

Don't exchange the truth for a lie. The Word of God is true, don't exchange it for whatever else. Anything that doesn't match up to the word of God is a lie. To exchange the word of God for something else is a grave sin. That was the grave error that Adam and Eve had committed. God said that if they eat the fruit of the tree, they will surely die. The devil said, they will not surely die. They decided to go for the devil's word instead of God's word. Therefore the history that we all know.

God said to Joshua: This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. When we hold on to the truth of the word of God, the natural result would be our success! And that is really the purpose of that book. To tell us what to do; to lead us in the way of life, of prosperity, of success. When we go the other way, we commit the same thing as Adam and Eve did.

The word of God says, do not be anxious about anything; we should do exactly that. That is not easy to do especially when we talk about major stuff; but we need at least to start somewhere. And so at some point we got to break that habit of worrying and being troubled and fearful always. If something goes wrong or something gets damaged, we should be quick to remember that our God is a God who restores even to double of what was lost.

It is important to know that Book. So that we can know what is our hope. To a cancer patient who doesn't know about Christ, all is lost. The doctors proclaim his remaining days and all he could do is wither into deep sorrow. But a true believer will not be afraid because there is a part in the Scripture that says, by His stripes we are healed! While the former has hope of death, the latter has hope of life.

Do not exchange the truth for a lie, there is cure for cancer, and all you need to do is to know about it.

How do you know?

I asked: How do you know that when you die you will be with Jesus? Somebody said: 1Jn 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. And WHAT are these who believe... 1Jn 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God... And what shall become of those who believe... Joh 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. I said: Yes, sure the Bible tells us that, and our Pastors tell us that. But how are you so sure that indeed you have eternal life? And again he says: Rom 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED. This is the glorious future of those whom the Father foreknew. Again I s...

Between God and the Politician

Often we hear during election time of Politicians platform of government and promised infrastructure projects should they be elected in office. But all those talk and speeches just go back to the filing cabinets once elections are through and kept hid until the next elections. So between God and the Politician is a great chasm, a great divide between truth and lies because Man's words are often empty, but the Word of God is never empty. Not because Man wants to lie but because he is not capable of keeping his every word. God on the other hand is able. God said: But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings, and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts (Mal 4:2-3). Those words are not empty. Surely they come to pass to them which receives them. And God has declared it that ...

Working Out Salvation

Php 2:12-15 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. (13) For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. (14) Do all things without murmurings and disputings: (15) That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;  Just to remove the misconstruction here, ‘work out’ is not synonymous with ‘work for’. The former means to develop while the latter means to earn. Salvation is not earned. It is freely given of God. He made it that way so that no one can boast. But salvation needs to be developed so that we may reap its fruits. Christians struggle with their faith because after that they have received the Lord Jesus they still face the same problems, the same struggles, the same circumstances even long after that they be...
