Not sure I understand your comment. I am staying the Bible is the only source of truth. You either accept it all as truth, or none of it at all. I think the great danger is people picking and choosing what to follow from the Bible and creating their own truths. Why do you feel the Bible is corrupt? It is historically accurate; there are so many pieces done on this. It is the infallible Word of God.
Of course Jesus is king, but it does matter how we live our lives. Even the demon know who Jesus is. It's not enough just to acknowledge him; who are we to pick and choose what God as defined as truth. Do we know better than him (Job covers this well). We must repent of our sins and do our best to walk in his statures. Not works based of course; it doesn't matter how much I tithe, go to church etc. But its about fighting the good fight and repenting for our sins as we can never achieve perfection.
As my name states, there will be a day where every tongue confesses Jesus Christ is Lord. I just pray I hear well done faithful slave, not depart from me you who practice lawlessness. It is our commission to share this good news with others. Many will reject it, but what joy comes from the few who accept it and our saved. We can not fear the rejection of the world; after all its not up to us who accept it. Only good can soften the hearts of the unbelieving and resurrect the dead man back to life. We are all dead in our trespasses and Jesus Christ is the only way. He is the light the truth and the way; but part of this acceptance is living our lives for Him and not putting ourselves ahead of God.
"Everyone has different truths"
Nope. They may have their perspective, but that is different.
There is only one truth.
Exactly this.
And right there is the deception: Equating perspective and perception with the truth itself.
FWIW, from a Christian or spiritual perspective, this is Lucifer's assertion. "My truth" is as important or real as yours, God."
But whether one believes in the Creator or doesn't, the premise that there is only one truth is foundational to goodness.
Amen, this is exactly why we are where we are. There is only one source of truth, the Bible. Well said Fren.
