A search for Truth JOHN 14:6 WHAT IS TRUTH?

ATTACKS AGAINST TRUTH Letty Russell, a postmodern feminist theologian, has argued that though “there are plenty of persons and churches still laying claim to God’s preference for their form of Christianity, the discovery of the whole inhabited world and the many faiths of that world has made the claim to salvation for only a few seem less and less credible” (1993, p. 120). According to Richard Dawkins, “religion is very largely an enemy of truth” (Bass, p. 87).

Jesus said to him, “ I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” JOHN 14:6

A BIBLICAL VIEW OF TRUTH “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life…” John 14:6 1 Seeking the Truth 2 Accepting the Truth 3 Proclaiming the Truth

SEEKING THE TRUTH ACTS 17:10 – 12 1

10 Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. ACTS 17:10 – These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so. 12 Therefore many of them believed, and also not a few of the Greeks, prominent women as well as men.

SEEKING TRUTH John 17:17 – 19 Psalm 119:160 John 14:6

2 ACCEPTING THE TRUTH I Corinthians 2:6 – 9

GROWING UP IN THE LORD I Corinthians 2:6 – 9 Acts 2:42 I Timothy 4:12 – 16 II Timothy 3:14 – 15 Deuteronomy 6:4 – 9

3 PROCLAIMING THE TRUTH Hebrews 10:14 – 15

PROCLAIMING THE TRUTH Hebrews 10:14 – 15 John 4:35 Matthew 9:37, 38 I Corinthians 3:6, 7

DEFENDING THE TRUTH I Peter 3:15 Matthew 7:15 Acts 20:29 – 30 Galatians 2:11 – 16 Ephesians 4:15 Matthew 5:39 – 42 Galatians 6:1 James 5:19, 20

HOW WILL YOU RESPOND TO HIS CALL? GOD IS TRUTH
