1 Timothy 4:1-16
We are in a war for truth. Since the Garden of Eden, Satan has been spreading lies and enticing people away from the truth of God. His work has never stopped and continues in our lives and those around us. The question is: how are you going to fight amid this battle?
The way we fight in this spiritual war is to walk in and communicate the truth. We need to stand firm on the truth and "point these things out" to believers who are going wayward. The only way we can make sure that we are embracing truth is to compare our beliefs to Scripture. God's Word is and always will be the standard against which all truth claims must be compared. Therefore, we must devote ourselves to private and public reading of Scripture and must "be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them." Notice this is a lifestyle of pursuing truth. We must have a continual intake of truth and an outflow as we share these things with others.
If you have been following the New Testament readings this year you have experienced ten months of truth. My prayer is that you will continue to make this a lifelong pursuit. May we know the truth, live the truth, and share the truth so we "will save both yourself and your hearers."
Father God, give me a passion for truth. Give me wisdom to know and walk in your truth, and the ability to share it effectively with others. Amen.
How can you more regularly pursue and share truth?
