FAKE SOCIAL MEDIA:
Girl that “went hiking” and the sister that called her out
As funny as this is, social media has warped how we view our own lives
“We compare our behind the scenes to someone else’s highlight reel.”
The Problem: we are then comparing our true lives with the false image of someone else’s
Tonight’s Topic: True & Free
We are talking about truth and establishing truth as a habit in our lives.

1. TRUTH ISN’T SOMETHING, IT IS SOMEONE
Jesus is Truth
Jesus fulfills hundreds of prophecies!
Imagine filling the State of Texas two-feet deep with silver dollars and sending in someone blindfolded to find one marked coin.
The chances of that person finding the correct coin mirror the chances of Jesus fulfilling just eight of the hundreds of prophesies that fill the Bible.
The chances of someone just fulfilling eight is intense, and yet Jesus fulfilled hundreds of prophecies made 400+ years before he was on Earth.
That alone can be proof that Jesus is truth!
The Spirit of Truth
God revealed to Peter that Jesus was Truth
The Holy Spirit will speak to us what He hears from God the Father
Sibling delivering a message from Mom or Dad
2. TRUTH IS SPIRITUAL
True Worship Happens in Spirit and Truth
To worship in truth means that you are worshiping according to the whole counsel of God’s Word.
When you worship (loving, serving, giving) God you are worshiping Him through your understanding of His Word
As I read God’s word, I can’t help but worship Him
Antichrist Opposes Truth
Antichrist is simply anything that is against Christ
Therefore, if Jesus is truth, we understand that anything against Jesus is not truth
Low Quality Friendships
lower the opinion of your friends that aren’t following Jesus
stop valuing the opinion of someone that doesn’t know the truth!
Who cares if they don’t like your social media post?
Who cares when your friend makes fun of you for saying no to partying
Who cares about the comments made to you by someone that doesn’t know the truth
Manage Your Expectations
If you know someone doesn’t know the truth, then don’t expect truth to come out of their mouth
Movie Talk
Can’t talk about a movie with someone that hasn’t seen it!
God’s anointing will help you see the truth
1 John 2:26-
God’s anointing will help you see the truth
when you’ve been spending time in God’s Word you recognize truth
God’s anointing simply means you are set apart, marked for God
The spirit of antichrist doesn’t want God’s truth
Truth is not necessarily “what works”
Truth is not “what feels good”
Truth is not “what is popular”
We are living in a day where people want to believe whatever they want to believe!
Fake News: Thailand Combat Force
People will justify the lies in their life, if it benefits them.
3. TRUTH BRINGS PEACE TO FEAR & ANXIETY
Practice these things and the God of peace will be with you
The God of Peace will be with you
Not only will you have the peace of God, but also God Himself will help you
2 Corinthians 10:5
In order to overcome fear & anxiety, you have to take captive the things that are not true, and meditate on things that are true!
4. HOW TO KNOW TRUTH
Read Your Bible
John 8:31-32
truth doesn’t come from academic knowledge and understanding, but simply by remaining in God’s Word
Work Out Your Salvation
What do you believe is true?
Work Out means to ACTIVATE your salvation!
Have you activated your salvation?
Prayer Life
Dating
Friendships
Work
Insecurities
Dreams
Finances
Fear & Trembling doesn’t mean we should be scared when activating our salvation.
Healthy fear says I’m more scared of life without God than I am of life with God
CONCLUSION
The spirit of antichrist is running wild in our world.
Unless we dig into God’s Word daily and make this a habit, we will fall to lies
stop worrying what others think about you, and start caring what God thinks about you
True freedom comes into our lives when we stop believing the lies.
Lies tripped Adam and Eve, and we (as humans) have been believing the lies since then.
Huddle Questions:
The spirit of antichrist is anything that opposes Jesus.
Since Jesus is truth, anything that opposes Jesus is not true.
What areas of life can we get trapped in because we believe something that isn’t true?
Do you fall into the trap of comparing other’s highlight reels to your behind the scenes?
Jesus says that, he “is the way, truth, and life.”
