The Truth Matters

Our lives have been distracted by the crooked and perverse world (e.g., racism, materialism, partiality, nepotism, plutonomy, commercialism, lawsuit, divorce, illegality, dispute, division, pride, homosexuality, fraud, hypocrisy, impure cultures/ habits/ customs, or even Covid-19). The pandemic Corona Virus Disease in 2019 (Covid-19) caused our sorrowing over the death of about a million people on the earth as well as our cautious lives never previously experienced. But God allowed the Covid-19 because even a sparrow would not fall to ground without God’s will (Mat 10:29). We don’t know when Covid-19 would end and where the earth would go. To Thomas who did not know where to go, Jesus said in John 14:6, “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” Yes, even in Covid-19, Jesus the truth matters. How do we know the truth? We should search the Scriptures because they testify of Jesus in John 5:39, “You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me.” The truth is the Word of God as Jesus prayed to the Father for us in John 17:17, “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.” So we should live by ever word of God or by faith, without worrying but always praying —“Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.26 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: 27 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall” (Matthew 7:24-27). So the Covid-19 causes a lot of sufferings, but causes the truth to makes us free from such distraction as Jesus told the believers in John 8:31-32, “Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, ‘If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.’” The Bible studies from October 13, 2019 to October 4, 2020, by CCAH His own church are summarized with this book. Since inductive & expository studies are essential for us to live daily spirit led lives just like Christ by every word of God, the most parts of this book are inductive & expository studies.
