Logic, truth and destiny by Gary Rose

Kurtwood Smith says something very interesting here; and its about TRUTH-- its confusing, but TRUE!!!  When human beings make up truth and do what seems right to them without God's direction, eventually their faulty logic becomes contradictory.  We see it all around us; racist people race bating, people protected by armed body guards calling for gun control, politically correct speech that limits (controls) the rights of others while advancing their own agenda. Lies, all lies!!!

The is only one genuine truth- The truth that comes from GOD!!!

Consider...

Proverbs, Chapter 3 (WEB)

 ¹ My son, don’t forget my teaching;

but let your heart keep my commandments:

  ² for length of days, and years of life,

and peace, will they add to you.

  ³ Don’t let kindness and truth forsake you.

Bind them around your neck.

Write them on the tablet of your heart.

  ⁴ So you will find favor,

and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

  ⁵ Trust in Yahweh with all your heart,

and don’t lean on your own understanding.

  ⁶ In all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will make your paths straight. (emp. added GDR)

Hebrews, Chapter 1 (WEB)

 ¹ God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,  ² has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.  ³ His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; 

John, Chapter 8 (WEB)

  ³⁰  As he spoke these things, many believed in him.  ³¹ Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.   ³²  You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” (emp. added GDR)

John, Chapter 8 (WEB)

  ³³  They answered him, “We are Abraham’s seed, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, ‘You will be made free’ ?” 

  ³⁴  Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.   ³⁵  A bondservant doesn’t live in the house forever. A son remains forever.   ³⁶  If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.   ³⁷  I know that you are Abraham’s seed, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.   ³⁸  I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have seen with your father.” 

  ³⁹  They answered him, “Our father is Abraham.” 

Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.   ⁴⁰  But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham didn’t do this.   ⁴¹  You do the works of your father.” 

They said to him, “We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God.” 

  ⁴²  Therefore Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of myself, but he sent me.   ⁴³  Why don’t you understand my speech? Because you can’t hear my word.   ⁴⁴  You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn’t stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its father.  ⁴⁵  But because I tell the truth, you don’t believe me.   ⁴⁶  Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?   ⁴⁷  He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.” 

  ⁴⁸  Then the Jews answered him, “Don’t we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?” 

  ⁴⁹  Jesus answered, “I don’t have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.   ⁵⁰  But I don’t seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.   ⁵¹  Most certainly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death.” 

  ⁵²  Then the Jews said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, ‘If a man keeps my word, he will never taste of death.’   ⁵³ Are you greater than our father, Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?” 

  ⁵⁴  Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is our God.   ⁵⁵  You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, ‘I don’t know him,’ I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.   ⁵⁶  Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad.” 

  ⁵⁷  The Jews therefore said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” 

  ⁵⁸  Jesus said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM.” 

  ⁵⁹  Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, (emp. added GDR) but Jesus was hidden, and went out of the temple, having gone through their midst, and so passed by. 

Ultimately, things will not end well for those who oppose God!

2 Thessalonians, Chapter 1 (WEB)

 ³  We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you towards one another abounds;  ⁴ so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure.  ⁵ This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer.  ⁶ Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,  ⁷ and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,  ⁸ giving vengeance to those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus,  ⁹ who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,  (emp. added GDR) ¹⁰ when he comes to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired among all those who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed) in that day.

Today, you have a choice. Think about it- before its too late!!!
