"Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 10 April 2012"
Today's Bible Verse: John 14:5-6 "Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You going, and how can know the way?" Jesus said to him, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, No one comes to the Father except through me."
The thought of Jesus leaving threw Thomas into despair. If Jesus left, how would he ever learn the way to Him? Jesus answer was that "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me."
Through His death and resurrection, Jesus is "the Way" to the Father. He is also "the Truth" and "the Life." "As Truth," He is the revelation of God. "As Life" He is the communication of God to us. Jesus did not tell him here about 'the way," nor does He show them "the way." He does even guide them along "the way." He says, "HE IS THE WAY."
The word "truth" in verse 6, is used in two ways in Scripture: (1) true as contrasted with false and (2) genuine as contrasted with unreal. Although both apply to God, when we speak of the truth of God, normally His genuineness is contrasted with false gods of other religions. The Scriptures in this verse declare Him "the only true God (John 17:3). When Elijah the prophet confronted the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, he challenged them to evaluate the genuineness of the Lord and of Baal (1 Kings 18:21). The true God answered by fire. Because the Lord is God, we as Christians are obligated to Him in all His demands.
Today's Biblical Truth: "The Holy Spirit is called the "Spirit of truth," because He is truth and guides us into all truth."

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and Serve the Lord our God with Gladness. Love God More Today. Pray for our Brothers and Sister in Christ who are being persecuted for their Faith and Trust in Jesus. Continue to pray for Youcef Nardarkhani the Iranian pastor who has been sentenced to death for his refusal to denounce Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Pray for God's Peace on the city of Jerusalem and His blessings in the Nation of Israel. Always remember that when you have spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T," GOD Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN."
Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness." Psalm 143:10
Jesus Reigns!!! May God's Love, Peace, Strength and Peace be with you all.
