With over 20 major religions in the world and a wide variety of Christian churches, it’s no wonder people are confused or avoid religion altogether. It gets easier when you know the truth in the form of a person – Jesus. He said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)
Speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him.
Ephesians 4:15
Yet can Jesus be trusted? He fulfilled upwards to 300 Bible prophecies. He was born of a virgin, healed the sick, cast out demons, raised the dead and taught with authority. Then He was crucified, rose again, promised to return, and ascended into Heaven. The Bible’s prophetic scriptures are still unfolding with astounding accuracy. Once what seemed unimaginable now appears to be just around the corner. If Jesus can’t be trusted, who can?
The Christian’s job is to become more like Him, lovingly reaching out with the gospel and meeting needs. Reread the teachings of the Word of God and see how your life lines up? Pray, too, that God will open the eyes of the leaders and citizens of the United States to see Christ as the truth – and one worthy of their trust.
