STUDY FOR THE TRUTH MY FRIENDS, PLEASE STUDY!!
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the TRUTH, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6 (KJV)
TRUTH the original Greek word meant alétheia in religious matters; So what is TRUTH in things appertaining to God and the duties of man and a Child of God in today’s society where man has decided His own interpretation of things pertaining to God, instead of allowing the Spirit of God and His word to Guide.
When Christianity was first introduced in the period after the death of Christ you had The GNOSTIC which appeared similar to CHRISTIANITY. GNOSTIC “is a knowledge from experience, especially experience of divinity or that which is beyond the five senses.
The word Gnosis does not refer to knowledge that we are told or believe in. Gnosis is conscious, experiential knowledge,” But what I need you to focus on today is the fact that the GNOSTIC had a form of Christianity or “having a form of godliness but denying its power.”
Like the wheat and tares, the similarity is the same. Matt 24:11-12 (KJV) tells us that “many false prophets shall rise, 
and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
I believe those text were put together because a false prophet is one who claims to speak from God, and claims power in what he is prophesying But in reality is led by the god of this world. So to deceive in the name of God is cold and heartless.
So TRUTH my friends is what we all should seek, if you also seek God’s kingdom. But with so many voices claiming to speak in the name of the Lord. Where, or who do we go to for the TRUTH.
John tells us in John 16:13 (NKJV) “But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.”
And as we Study Gods word it “is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Heb. 4:12 (NKJV)
So as God’s chosen, if I follow the councils of God in His word, while allowing the Spirit to lead, a Child of God will never be lead astray by false prophets. But we must seek Salvation with a Passion like Jeremiah When God’s words (come to us, we must eat them;) they (must be our joy, and heart’s delight,) Jer. 15:16 (NIV)
As we “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2Tim 2:15 (KJV) “God has been pleased to communicate His truth to the world by human agencies, and He Himself, by His Holy Spirit, qualified men and enabled them to do this work.
He guided the mind in the selection of what to speak and what to write. The treasure was entrusted to earthen vessels, 
yet it is, nonetheless, from Heaven. The testimony is conveyed through the imperfect expression of human language, yet it is the testimony of God;
and the obedient, believing child of God beholds in it the glory of a divine power, full of grace and truth. In His Word, God has committed to men the knowledge necessary for salvation. The Holy Scriptures are to be accepted as an authoritative, infallible revelation of His will.
They are the standard of character, the revealer of doctrines, and the test of experience. “Every scripture inspired of God is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is in righteousness; that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (KJV) (E.G. White Great Controversy)
Remember friends what Christ says of Satan “there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it….(and that includes false Prophets.) He who is of God hears God’s words;” John 8:44-47 (NKJV) So STUDY MY FRIENDS PLEASE STUDY
So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
