The Truth Is The Truth

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.  By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 

You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them.

We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us.  By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

1 John 4:1-6

Pop culture says that all religions are the same and it does not matter what you believe as long as you believe because belief in and of itself is a free pass to heaven.  Others teach that the only requirement to get into heaven is to be a good person.  These ideas are comforting to those who have no knowledge of what the Bible says about salvation or who don’t like what the Bible says about salvation, but these ideas are false.  I could say that those who teach these things are leading people down the path to hell, but I won’t.

What I will say is this, there is only one way to God, and that is through Jesus Christ, His Son.  This is the truth and this is the spirit of truth.  We need to say it and say it often because we are called to share the message that Jesus Christ is the one and only way to salvation. 

The truth is the truth.  We speak the truth of Jesus so that no one can say they did not know the truth.
