In the Light of the Truth
The God Honest Truth
Jesus Christ spoke many principles of truth, in the form of parables. We know that His words are valid because they are validated throughout the scripture. In a similar way to how we understand the validity a parable provides; Jesus having spoken the same words of God given through the prophets, and through His actions fulfilling the scripture, establishes a means of recognizable validation of Him.
Additionally, the parables Jesus Christ used to teach to His followers were of spiritual truths, which require us to humble ourselves and act with love, as we bring our awareness to a place where the truth is readily apparent. We invite the council of the Holy Spirit by submitting ourselves to God in love and in obedience, and by believing in His Son, Jesus Christ. And the Holy Spirit is what we can count on to guide us in all truth and understanding of God's word.
The Verdict: Light has come into the World
John 3:19-21
This is the verdict: Light has come into the world,
but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
Everyone who does evil hates the light,
and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light,
so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."
Walking in the Light
I John 1:5-10
This is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you:
God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him yet walk in darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from every sin.
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives.
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."
Matthew 5:14-16
A Tree and It's Fruit
Jesus teaches
“No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks."
Luke 6:43-45
A Psalm of David
Psalms 23
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
He leads me beside quiet waters,
He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for His name’s sake.
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
Be Holy
1 Peter 1:13-16
Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.
As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written:
“Be holy, because I am holy.”
(Lev. 11:44-45; 19:2; 20:7)
Transform Your Spirit, Mind, and Body
The Gift We are to Receive
God planned for an avenue for each of us to be redeemed from the hand of the enemy; through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, we may all be saved. By simply believing in Him, you will be saved and delivered from death. Believe without a doubt that there is a peace to be found when you accept the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart as your personal Lord & Savior. If you have not done so already, simply take the time to surrender your life to God, and find the overwhelming peace that is available to you at any moment of your life. Receiving Him means that you are no longer living for the evil (self serving) desires that you did before, but are now living to serve the will of God. This does not mean you will always be righteous or even holy, but that in all your ways, as you look to the Lord with your heart, He will guide your path.
Proverbs 3:5-6
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He shall direct your path."
Prayer of Salvation
Each day, ask the Lord Jesus Christ for forgiveness of your sins, and your sins will be forgiven. But if you have yet to receive the Lord, repeat this prayer:
"Jesus, I surrender myself to you, I receive you as my Lord and Savior. I believe that you are the Son of God, and that you died on the cross for me, that I may live, and that you rose again. Please deliver me from sin and guide my life. In the name of Jesus, Amen."
It is through this, proclaiming that Jesus is Lord, that you will receive the Holy Spirit, who will guide you to all truth, peace, and security in God. May the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you always.
Perspectives for True Wealth, Healing, and Love
Rejoice in the Lord Always
Philippians 4:4-7
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy- think about such things.
