Introduction:
Seeing Truth as truth
A lot of people have a pragmatic view of truth
As Christians we rely on Scripture
Today, we will assume that the Bible is true.
1.
It (truth) is not about you
Post Modern / Post Truth era
People are focused on personal feelings and pleasure
You may want to be rich and you can steal, but reaching your goal doesn’t make stealing right.
Dallas Willard wrote about a female student’s story in his book, The Divine Conspiracy.
The student asked the ethics professor, “What is the point of knowing good if you don’t keep trying to become a good person?”
2. It is all about God’s Glory
3. We have ample ways to know God better
A. Spirit
B. Scripture
C. School
Conclusion: Go get your eyes checked!
Are you eyes rolling back just to be seeing yourself?
Are you pursuing God through Spirit, Scripture and School?
Are you sharing, serving and loving others?
