What Have You Heard About Jesus?

God's Word says that faith comes by hearing.  Depending on what you hear, experience or see, you could develop faith in the wrong things, non-truths without even knowing that it is not truth. 

What am I talking about?

It was once believed that the earth was flat because when people looked, they saw the horizon which was a straight line in the distance.  So, mankind believed and had faith in a non-truth that they would fall off of the earth if they went past a certain point.  They had faith in an non-truth and didn't know it!

Until those who challenged that belief, went beyond what they had been taught and proved that the earth is round, no one would have ever accepted the real truth about the earth.

In these posts, my goal is for us to research the scriptures, to research what we have been taught about the scriptures, and ask the Holy Spirit of Truth to teach us the real truth of the bible.  That is the Holy Spirit's assignment, to lead us into all truth.

I encourage you, if you have been discouraged with church or have had an experience that has caused you to be turned off with Christianity, (maybe it is because of a non-truth), to just take a moment to read and think about these posts.  Take a section at a time of each one of these posts and read it over and over.  It may be a challenge to discover that you need to change what you have been taught (if indeed you have faith in any non-truths about Jesus), just as it was a challenge for people to accept the earth as being round!

Remember this, Jesus Christ and Him Crucified is the most important TRUTH in the scriptures and that he is our answer to everything.  Jesus not only came for our eternal salvation but for our emotional, physical, financial and daily provision.  There is power in the Blood of Jesus!
