True & False

“Thy Word is Truth” (John 17:17),

We have often been warned not to believe everything we hear or read! Thinking of this, I had to smile at a post I saw on social media. Here is what it said:

Don’t believe everything you read on the Internet.

 -Abraham Lincoln

It gets the point across doesn’t it?

There is certainly a lot of information both true and false available at our fingertips today. One of the characteristics of the days just before the Lord comes is “knowledge shall be increased” (Daniel 12:4). The trouble is, so are the opinions, suppositions, and speculations of men.

However, there is one book that we can fully trust from cover to cover. That book, of course, is the Bible — the living Word of God. As the Lord stated in John 17, it is truth; and, I would add, nothing but the truth. The Apostle Paul reminded the young man, Timothy, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable” (2 Timothy 3:16).

Read it and believe it!
