"Love the Truth and Live" Part 2

During Jesus's trial before His crucifixion in John 18:38, "Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all."

Through scriptures such as John 17:17, 18:38, 1 Peter 1:23, Romans 8:35-39, and 1:18-32, Senior Pastor Travis Tullis continues to remind us that Jesus, being the unblemished lamb of God, is the only truth that matters.

John 1:1 says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Knowing God's word allows us to walk in the truth, freeing us from all darkness. John 1:3-5 tells us, "All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." The life of God is in us by His word. This means we should not suppress God's word and truth, which if we do, will bring unrighteousness and wrath.

Thank you, Senior Pastor Tullis, for leading us forward and higher together by letting us know that if we continue to walk in God's truth, nothing can separate us from His love. This gives us strength to face tomorrow because through God’s word, the light of Jesus lives in us.

December 8, 2024 • Sr. Pastor Travis M. Tullis • Proverbs 30:5–6, Proverbs 1:20–33, 1 John 2:16, 1 Thessalonians 2:11–13, Matthew 5:25–26

"Love the Truth and Live" Part 1 Proverbs 30:5- 6 says, "Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and be found a liar." Senior Pastor Travis Tullis tells us we must love the truth, which is God’s Word, and we must live out His word as we hear and receive His knowledge through scriptures Proverbs 30:5-6, Proverbs 1:20-33, 1 John 2:16,1 Thessalonians 2:11-13, Matthew 5:26-25, and Matthew 28:19. 1 John 2:16 says, "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." When we open our ears to hear God's word, we must open our hearts to receive His desire and not our own desires. While we take in the knowledge of God's truth, we can become alive through Him and receive forgiveness from Him and become courageous, bold, joyful and in so doing we are at peace with Him. For this to occur, our belief system must be aligned with God's word, which is the only truth, and we attain this through His spirit. Thank you, Senior Pastor Tullis, for leading us forward and higher together by letting us know that we must value God's word and accept His truth, continuing our hope in the glory of Jesus's coming.
