In John 18, Pilate looked at Jesus and asked the question, “What is truth?” Can you see the irony there? Jesus, who IS truth, is standing right there and Pilate can’t see it. Or maybe he just didn’t want to see it. Most people want to see THEIR truth, not THE truth. They watch the news that fits their beliefs. They listen to people who say what they believe. They try to silence or cancel those that say something other than what they believe because if something is true, it has to be believed. And the only way to prove you believe something is for your life’s actions to reflect that belief.
Do you want to know the truth? Are you ready to change to prove you believe the truth? Or do you want to waddle into church and hear some pretty music and some encouraging words and then waddle out the same way you came in? If so, how’s that working out for ya really?
This Sunday at Christ Fellowship, we will study what some folks think is a hard truth. You may need to wear steel-toed boots but I pray that you come with an open mind and a soft heart that is willing to hear and be changed by absolute truth. And…you will get the encouragement and the pretty music as well! So, make plans now to join your family this Sunday. You are missed when you aren’t here! I love you all! — Todd
