From Gary... That missing article


There is TRUTH! It is NOT relative because if everyone's truth is correct, then there is NO TRUTH! Everything becomes opinion and morality is impossible. Society then degenerates into anarchy and humans become little more than intelligent "beasts". 

The picture above is wrong: The pill should be labeled THE TRUTH. And absolute TRUTH resides only in the realm of the almighty and has been delivered to us only through the Bible. The world offers flesh, lust and pride, but GOD gives grace and TRUTH....

1 John, Chapter 2 (WEB)
 15  Don’t love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him.  16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.  17 The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever. 

John, Chapter 1 (WEB)
14 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.  15 John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”  16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.  17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ

So why don't people accept THE TRUTH? Sin, in one form or another is the answer. Don't think I am right about this? Consider...

2 John (WEB)
  4  I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.  5 Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.  6 This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.  7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don’t confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.  8 Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.  9 Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son.

So, we have a choice, accept God's truth or something we decide is true. One choice leads to heaven- one does NOT! Make your choice and I will make mine. Swallowing time.
