“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Friday; April 4, 2008

           One of the core religious words is “truth”.  We read of it throughout the Scriptures, we hear about it in a lot of sermons, we even sing its praises in our hymns.  While truth has a definite role in religion, have you ever noticed the diversity among the world’s beliefs?  There are teachings that are so different, they can’t all be true? 

          Often times, religions may base their doctrines on principles of good and evil; but, by adding a dose of nationalism or a sprinkling of denominationalism, they venture off the straight and narrow path and find themselves wandering away from the truth. 

          If we believe that truth can be (and needs to be) present in religion, where can we find it?  The Bible, within itself, promotes its inherent and infallible truthfulness when one of its inspired writers notes, “… even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed.” (Galatians 1:8). 

          Are we looking for truth?  The only place to find it is in the accurate and everlasting Word of God.

          Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
