KNOWING THE TRUTH

18^TH ,FEBRUARY 2022

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 1-4

TEXT:  John 8:30-36

30 As He spoke these words, many believed in Him.

31 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.”

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

34 Jesus answered them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. 

35 And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. 

36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

KEY VERSE: John 8:32

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free..”

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Only the Truth can set free from sin and error.

THE MESSAGE:

A story was told of a woman who heard of diverse miracles happening in a particular church. ‘I must go’, she told herself. Sadly, she had been married for several years without the fruit of the womb. In search of this blessing, she had gone to many assemblies, all to no avail. While she was in that church, she was surprised, according to her testimony, that for the first time in her life, she heard the gospel message loud and clear. She realised that if she had died in the course of looking for a child without salvation, she would have gone to hell. She repented and gave her life to Christ. That same month, even without any specific prayer, she became pregnant. After nine months, she had a safe delivery. She found the truth that Christ is the Saviour and miracle Worker.

While speaking to the Jews who had just believed on Him, the Lord Jesus instructed them to continue in His word, because only then would they know the truth that could set them free from error. However, some unbelieving Jews were of the opinion that they were “Abraham’s seed and were never in bondage to any man”, and questioned the Lord as to why He said, “Ye shall be made free”. Jesus explained that anyone who lives in sin is a slave to sin and needs the Son of God to make him “free indeed”.

Truth abounds on earth. Natural laws like the law of gravity, the laws of thermodynamics etc., are established truths. But the truth that Christ talks about, which He came to give man, is the one that brings him back to His Creator.

No matter how long we live, life on earth is short in view of eternity. For anyone to partake in Christ’s kingdom, such must have repented and accepted Him as personal Lord and Saviour.
