A Failure To Follow Truth!

God’s judgment is poured out for failure to follow His Truth! What is Truth? Jude is pleading in Jude 1:3, “...that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” Jude was writing some 40 to 50 years after the death of Jesus. The Faith which Jesus taught was being diluted (not containing very much of the original message).

The element gone missing was the TRUTH which Christ had preached and modeled. It was upon this TRUTH that he established His Church and the gates of hell will not prevail. Matt. 16:15, “He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

The power of the message is the TRUTH. The TRUTH is validated by the Holy Spirit. “Validate is to recognize, establish, or illustrate the worthiness or legitimacy of...” Just as Jude pleaded with the first century Church, the Holy Ghost is pleading with the present day Church. He is saying repent and return to the truth which Jesus taught and modeled.

Truth comes in its entirety from the throne of God. It cannot be a mixture of Spirit and flesh but must be 100% God. Any deviation is a mixture of heaven and earth and will result in a dilution of the heavenly message. The Truth is born of God and has to be born of the God in us. We must be born again of the Spirit of God! (To be continued) The Message: A Critical Review Of End Time Events, p 46, available at Amazon.com.
