Welcome to How to Know the Truth from the Bible post. Truth is the highest form of reality. Truth hurts at times. King Herod asked Jesus Christ in John 18:38: “What Is Truth”?
How to Know the Truth
1. John 7:17
If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.
2. 1 Corinthians 2:9-12
But as it is written:
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
3. Luke 24:27
Beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.
A. We need to be willing to do God’s Will.
B. We need to be in prayer for Guidance.
C. We need to interpret scripture with scripture.
This is how we know we are in God’s truth and seeking His Will. God wants us to live in HIS Will, not ours. Here is a great message from Mark Finley about How to Pray Like Jesus.
Many Christians are preaching humanistic doctrines like God loves the gays, we should just love them and accept them as they are. Yes, God loves them but the Bible says the gay lifestyle is an abomination to God. HE will destroy the sin that many people are living in. He loves the sinner but HATES the sin.
In my own life, the truth has set me free. I struggled with sin in my life and had one foot in the church and one foot in the world. I am not perfect now. I am making progress day by day with the Holy Spirit working in my life to keep revealing more truth to me.
