AT WHAT POINT WOULD YOU QUESTION THE MEDIA OR THE WORLD ....HOW do we know what is true

Genesis EVE was told (serpent was more cunning=cunning adj, meaning to having or showing skill in achieving ones ends by deceit or evasion (deliberate deception)

Christian Standard Bible Chapter 3

the wild animals that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You can’t eat from any tree in the garden’?”

2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees in the garden. 3 But about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God said, ‘You must not eat it or touch it, or you will die.’ ”

4 “No! You will certainly not die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “In fact, God knows that when you eat it your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

Christian Standard Bible Chapter 2

What GOD told EVE, “You are free to eat from any tree of the garden, 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for on the day you eat from it, you will certainly die.”

DID THEY DIE......who was right GOD or the DEVIL ....who told the truth? telling the truth.....history was change by a lie but redeemed through truth and grace....lets table this for a few minutes and then come back to this…

BUT our bridge from the garden to today is consequences of believing the lie(s) and not following the truth… so here it is

Story unfolding as we speak...man shot by ICE and killed in ‘situation in Minn. was he peaceful protesting just coming out of the donut shop peacefully but he was actually obstructing the law embeding federal law enforcement officers....with a loaded gun with several magizines.....early reports looks like ICE has him to stop obstrucsing with removing an illegigal alien with more than just illegically coming to American but with violent criminal past....this man was obstructing the ICE officers, not listening to nor complianing with their requests...ICE tried to remove/contain the man, his gun came out/removed by ICE officer...looks like an accidental shot happened, GUN was yelled and in the chaos other officers thought they were being shot so they shot the man obstructing the offficers from doing their job. This is horrific and tragic but the ICE agents looks like they were doing there job in a very hostile

It Looks like his sin, not obeying the laws could have cost him his life, what does the bible say Romans 13:1–5 “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake.

The Grace New Testament Commentary, Revised Edition iv. Obeying Those in Authority (13:1–7)

Paul begins by making clear that he conceives of no exceptions to what he is now saying (every person). The subjection enjoined here is based on the simple fact that there is no authority if it is not bestowed by God. God does not merely allow certain men to rule, He arranges it. (David and Saul)

This point is now explicitly applied to the present situation. No one should attempt to divert the application to other times or circumstances. It is the present authorities that are established by God. This is true in our day as well.

13:2. Resistance to earthly authority is resistance to God Himself. Behind the Emperor or the governor is the ordinance of God Himself who “appointed” these human authorities.

By the ordinance of God Paul refers to the God-ordained authority wielded by earthly officials.

Unless a law runs counter to a direct divine command, there is no Biblical authorization to disobey it (

This man was lead by satan, anti ICE groups, which are same communist protestors that we have been dealing with for a long time...many of these protesting are bused in, paid to distrub our society which is based on values found in the bible. Judo-Christian ideals, no communism...aehtism, darwinism...

Devil is sneaky

AGAIN I ASK WHAT IS TRUTH , DOES KNOWING THE TRUTH SAVE US FROM SIN?? NO BUT WE MUST HAVE TRUTH AS OUR FOUNDATION, SOLID, THAT YOU HAVE NO DOUBT THAT YOU ARE SAVED BY BELIEVE IN CHRIST ALONE....NO WORKS CAN GET YOU INTO HEAVEN.....EVERYONE UNDERSTAND THIS??? So HOW do we walk victoriously in life....?

THIS SAME CONCEPT WILL WORK AS YOU FIND YOUR WAY TO A VICTOROUS LIFE......HEY WHO DOESN’T WANT VICTORY OVER PORN, OVER ADDICTION, OVER ANGER.....WHO THINKS THEY CAN DO IS ON THEIR OWN, I HAVE THE STRENGTH TO DO THIS....to first we have to know the truth and not waiver on CHRIST , not our doing

TRUTH - HOW DO WE KNOW THE TRUTH

2 Timothy 4:2–4 “Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.”

2 Timothy 3:16–17 “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

ABSOLUT VERSUS RELATIVE - hand out

What does God say about the truth. Lets look in the book of John alone look up in the csb bible and go through these

John 14:6 “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” so Jesus is true therefore...John 3:16 must be true

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

other versus in john 1:14, 1:17, 4:23-24. 8:32 16:13, 18:37-38

John 17:17 “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.”

The Grace New Testament Commentary, Revised Edition 4. Jesus Prays for Himself, His Disciples, and All Believers (17:1–26)

This is yet another way of stating the petition in vv 11 and 15. “Sanctify them” means make them holy, or set them apart from the world.

The Father was to sanctify the disciples “by [His] truth,” that is, God’s Word. Holiness is obtained by the renewal of mind that comes from feeding on God’s Word (

SUPER FACISNATING POINT , THE WORD TRUTH APPEARS 60 TIMES IN BOOK OF JOHN, THE WORD CHRIST APPEARS 60 TIMES IN THE BOOK OF JOHN

HOW DO WE LIVE IN VICTORY

Daily reliance on Jesus through prayer, Bible study, fellowship focusing on faith, obedience, confession of sins and surrendering your will to God. Remember God owns everything...he allows us to keep 90 percent of our income as well as entrusting us with everything we own....he could take it all away like JOB

Physical Growth is a function of time

Intellectual growth is a function of learning

Spiritual growth is neither a function of time nor learning, its a a function of obedience

=================== END ===========================

on how to feed on gods word Today we are doing our part showing up, we are hearing the word, studying the word, seeing the word work out in real life examples in mondern times, at the begining of time and all in between so HOW do we do this

Jesus knowing the word and defeating the devil...our example

Mathew 4:1-

J

TRUTH, TRUTH VERSUS LIES John 8:44 “You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because 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.”

Rob go to bible type in truth under search go to john read the truth versus

Talk about the differences between truth and lies with bible versus...

Pastor Geoff said only one other church here in the valley has a statment belive that does not include works, or repenting for salvation...or something about following God

These are not the truth

HAS ANYONE EVER REPENTED OF EVERY SIN THEY HAVE EVERY DONE? NO ITS NOT EVEN POSSIBLE TO REGONIZE EVERY SIN .....IF THIS WAS A CONDITION FOR SALVATION, NO ONE WOULD BE IN HEAVEN, SO WHY DOES CHURCHES WITHININ CHRISTIAN CHURCHES SAY THIS, ISALM AND MORMANISM DO THIS AS WELL.....YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND GRACE TO BE SET FREE
