Absolute Truth

May 19, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

There is absolute truth in the world. Somehow, this has become a controversial statement. I read a recent survey of college students that revealed 75% of them did not believe there was such a thing as truth. No wonder our world is in a death spiral! Two plus two will always equal four, and gravity will always cause something dropped to fall to the ground.

There is an absolute truth that is not open to debate or interpretation. It is this way because the God of all truth created it to be this way. In a day where disinformation and “fake news” are the buzzwords of choice, it’s difficult to know who we can trust and who we can’t. The Word of God has always proven trustworthy, and it always will.

Test the Spirits

March 21, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

1 John 4 begins with a somewhat curious phrase. John encourages the hearers of his letter to “test the spirits”. First, this implies there are many spirits. In our churches today, it is common to hear about the Holy Spirit, but there is often little attention paid to the other spirits in our world. We ignore these other spirits at our peril. Behind every false teaching, you will find a demonic source.

Yes, demons are real. They exist and flood the spiritual realm surrounding us. When we go along with false teaching, we are following demons. How’s that for a sobering thought? If we are not careful in examining the teaching we are listening to, there is a very good chance we aren’t being taught God’s truth at all. Instead of growing in our faith, we are opening our minds to demonic influences.

Only One God

February 3, 2022 by Tim Sherfy

A Biblical worldview demands we understand and believe there is only one God. Most Christians would agree with that statement, yet the way we live and the things we say often stand in contrast to this belief. We don’t correct friends and family members when they make inaccurate statements about God’s truth.

When culture rebels against the commands of our holy God, we sit idly by, convincing ourselves it is better to go along to get along. Why is it the world has no trouble proclaiming lies boldly, but Christians are so timid when it comes to speaking the truth? Why are we so afraid to declare there is only one God?

God’s Grace

September 2, 2021 by Tim Sherfy

The grace of God is a wonderful and utter mystery. Other than the gift of His Son, grace is perhaps the greatest gift given to us by God. Without grace, our sins would remain unforgiven. It is only by the grace of God we can approach Him in prayer. God’s grace did not come without a cost. Jesus bled and died, so we might experience the grace of God.

While His death was the ultimate expression of love, it was also the perfect picture of grace. Grace cost God giving up His Son. It cost Jesus His earthly life and pain we will never imagine. It was all for us. The greatest gift came at the greatest cost.

Speak His Truth

March 1, 2021 by Tim Sherfy

In a culture that is ironically becoming less tolerant in the name of tolerance, disciples of Jesus must remember He calls us to continue to speak His truth to a world floundering in deception. Our calling is not to espouse political opinions or to pontificate on economic policies. Our calling is to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ and to bathe the world in His love (Matthew 28:18-20).

It’s not wrong to hold opinions about things outside of God’s Word. Having opinions is part of what makes us human. But when we saturate our speech with more political rhetoric than Godly truth, we are going too far and fighting battles the Lord does not intend for us to fight.
