14 August 2022 - ENCS

Pastor Josh Harris continued the “Be Strong” series today
Leveraing what Pastor Joey and Ephesians six had to say
Snowden famously said that truth is first casualty of war
For us to wear the belt of truth, Pastor Josh did implore

If we are falsely accused, according to Psalm forty three
We must seek God’s light and truth to combat the enemy
For the truth will set us free, states John eight thirty two
Otherwise we are slaves to sin because of the sin we do

The answers to “why truth” are thus it gives us direction
And by seeking God, truth also provides us protection
Thirdly, Pastor Josh highlighted, truth buys us freedom
So bottom line, not seeking truth would be a bit dumb

Definitions of ‘what is truth?”, there are a preponderance
Be it logical, experiential, or universal correspondence
Truth is righteously active, as stated in Isaiah eleven
And truth is embodied in Jesus sent down from heaven

To answer the “so how?”, look at Ephesians four and five
Replace our falsehoods with our true identity so to thrive
We should remember to walk and do everything in love
Thus as God's children, we can try to imitate Him above

Ephesians 4:21-24, 5:1-2, 6:13
Isaiah 11:2-6
John 8:32-36,14:6
