Truth Is...

~ Precious ~ Priceless ~ Unchanging ~ Non conforming ~ Uncompromising ~ Unshakable ~
~ My Hope ~ My Joy ~ My Peace ~ My Refuge ~ My Restoration ~ My Promise from God ~

Truth is based on God, and His word. Some try to twist the words of God to justify their life's choice, their life's failures, or the plans they have for their Life. God in His love even warns us of this, and of false Prophets in the day in which we live. Men have always tried to twist God's truth to justify the sin in their own lives. I am not a smart person, many times I don't understand what the Bible means or what a preacher has preached or sometimes, maybe I just want to argue the point because it is "MY THING" , like a child I don't like being told no.

2 Timothy 4:3
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
 Matthew 24:11
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

~In those times I have prayed for wisdom, and sought the council of those around me. I do not have Bishop TD JAKES , Joel Olsteen, Benny Henn, Several local popular preachers, etc. on my list of advisers, my list is a much more humble and less popular group of people.  

 Matthew 24:24
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Mark 13:22
For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
 1 John 4:1
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
 
First I ask my husband, whose life I have watch for 16 yrs, and know without a doubt he will tell me the truth according to God's word. Or I ask, my Pastor, Bro. Bennie.( and now Bro JR *smile*) Or my sister whose life I know in ways most people would never understand, my sister in law Lori, or Sarah, my friends. I ask my parents, and others that I know without ONE doubt are saved..
okay let me break that down ......to a  GET  SERIOUS level of advisers. If you thought the Rapture took place, which is Christ return for His church, who would you call first to see if you missed it? I remember as a child having that fear or even as an adult knowing my walk with Christ was getting lukewarm and have a moment of panic when I couldn't find the kids anywhere, couldn't hear them....in that moment of total fear, who would you call, then who would be next on that list? IF you answer this with TRUTH, it would be those that you should seek council from, it would be those very people that you should ask for advise.
Not Amnon's friend, not your friend, or family member who tells you to "live however you want, you deserve to be happy, God looks on the inside and not the outside, come listen to my preacher, come go to my church"
2 Samuel 13:3
But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.
Thanks to the council of that friend, Amnon not only ended up murdered himself, but in the process he destroyed the lives of those he once loved. He harmed and violated the innocent, ruined their life. Brought shame to his father and family, and caused more sin to be bred from his desire for "MY THING". Your desire may not be the same as Amnon's, and with that you try to justify your actions. Amnon could have had the thing he wanted without ever sinning to get it, yet he listened to the advise of a "friend".

Click on any of the links to go to the web site and read these for yourself. Make sure you read the KJV of these as it is the Truth. As Nathan Tinsley taught one morning, to be another version you have to be at least 10% different, and if it's different, it's not the same. 

hope you enjoy your weekend!
Love!
