1/28/12- God is truth

WSC- Define God.
A: God is a Spirit, whose being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness and truth are all infinite, eternal, and unchangeable.   


And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth (Ex. 34:6)


For His merciful kindness is great toward us, And the truth of the Lord endures forever.(Psalm 117:2)


(A star trail with Polaris- the north star in the center- pointing to true north). 


Thoughts: Reality is truth and truth is reality.  God abounds in truth because He makes reality.  Some religions believe that there is no reality that life is all one big cosmic dream (maya- Matrix style).  God speaks the truth- and does not lie.  He does not hide reality, and we cannot hide our sins and faults from Him.  We cannot masquerade before God.  He see what is true, speaks what is true and lives truth.  Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life" (Jn. 14:6).  Pilate asked "what is truth" not knowing that Truth stood before him and he would condemn Truth to die.  But truth did not die with Christ.  The truth of God rises.  It is an illusion to think we make ourselves or that we can ignore the Maker and sustainer of reality.  


Prayer: Your truth gives me hope that putting faith in you will be best for me and true to reality.
