Scripture of the Day - November 16, 2012

John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Those who not only believe in Jesus but obey His word will know the truth and the truth will make them free... free from the snare of sin, free from lies and free from destruction. 
But it seems that many people today are wrapped up in their own world view and their own identity. They think they can create heaven here on earth with their own human efforts. They don't retain God in their knowledge, instead they speak evil of the truth and glorify a lie. And for this they will reap destruction. God is not responsible for the chaos this world is in...people are because they follow the wrong thing.
Peter warned  2 Peter 2:2  And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 
Folks, we can't discard the truth. We have to treasure it for without it we shall not see heaven. Jesus said in John 14:6   I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
