DENNIS

Good morning everyone. I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist Church. Have you ever watched a court trial unfold? It can be very confusing. Both the prosecutor and the defense are giving out so much information that it is hard to tell which one is the truth.

This also happens during elections. With all the mudslinging going on, it is hard to get the truth. During national debates, it seems the candidates will only tell you what you want to hear. However, when they are in office, things turn out quite differently.

Sadly, this type of confusion can also happen in the Christian faith. People can get so caught up on doctrinal stances and translation issues that the truth becomes obscured. So, what is truth? Well, the bible says that the world doesn’t know the truth because it doesn’t know Jesus. Jesus said that if we follow him, then we will be sanctified in truth. In other words, we will know the truth about God, his creation, his Son, his purpose, and his righteous judgement. Do you want to know the truth? If so, start prayerfully reading the bible. Then get involved in a church. If you don’t have a church home, come visit us. We would love to have you.
