Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”
Jesus is truth.
The Bible tells us we are at war for the souls of men. But our enemy is not human. We are at war with a spiritual enemy that is determined to steal, kill, and destroy all that God loves. He is called the ancient dragon, Lucifer, also known as the serpent, or Satan.
Jesus said Satan was a murderer from the beginning. There is no truth in him. He is a liar and the father of lies. Lies and deception are his art.
Lucifer whispers, follow your heart, personal happiness is the goal of life, be who you want to be.
The serpent says, “people are all good at heart,” “there are many roads to heaven,” and the Bible is outdated and irrelevant; a book of fables with too many rules.”
We have been on the defensive, and our morale has been brought low. We must now go on the offensive. A great many people have been deceived by the serpent’s lies and must be rescued.
The weapons of our warfare are not of this world. They are spiritual in nature. The Word of God is our sword. It is truth in written form, an offensive weapon, living and active, perfectly designed to destroy Satan’s lies.
Lies are defeated by truth. Jesus is truth. Truth is found in a personal relationship with Jesus. When we know Jesus, the truth lives within us. We are then called to love, pray for, and serve others that they too may be reborn in Jesus. Jesus said people may hate us, but they are not the enemy.
We are called to be “fishers of men,” and are equipped by our King with the spiritual authority we need to combat spiritual enemies. Lies may deceive for a time, but the truth remains forever.
John the Apostle said, The Son of God appeared for this reason, to destroy the works of the devil.
Our weapon is God’s truth, our enemy is Satan’s lies.
Jesus said these truths…
“All authority is given to me in heaven and on earth.”
“No one comes to the Father, except through Me.”
“Whoever lives and believes in me will never die.”
“Come unto me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
“My yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
“I leave you peace, my peace I give you.”
“Go and make disciples of all nations. teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”
“I will never leave you or forsake you.”
Our goal as disciples is to serve others as Jesus served and sacrificed for us.
Jesus is truth.
