Here is another sort taken from a Christian worldview with Dave and we get to the third pillar from who is God who is man number three how sinful man can be made right with a holy God not come through Jesus Christ. If someone does not understand this one you know believing God exists in understanding or being skeptical about man's nature is one thing but this third one is the most important one. The Bible says in first Timothy chapter 2 verse four there is one God and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all the testimony given at the proper time. That's not enough to tell you who Christ is.

Acts 412. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.

Jesus is the only way no other name under heaven that has given among men, that we must be saved through him. There is no other name through which man can be made right with a holy God than Jesus Christ. John 14 six Jesus said himself exactly the same thing. I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the father but through me. Jesus is either a liar he's a lunatic or he's Lord just based on that one statement alone in your eternity depends on your answer to that question. John 336 another black-and-white passage about who this Jesus Christ is he who believes in the son. Christ has eternal life, but Hugh does not obey the son will not see life, eternal life, but the wrath of God abides on him.

And finally, in John 11. Another powerful passage about the identity of who Jesus Christ is. Jesus said to I believe was Martha after the death of her brother Lazarus. He said I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die and he said you believe this and she said to him.

Yes, Lord, I have believe that you are the Christ, the son of God, even he who comes into the world and that if you are listening today is the way in which you can be saved. You can be as a sinful man or woman you can be made right without the God who created you by doing exactly what Jesus said here.

Do you believe this, do you believe that she is the resurrection and the life.

Do you believe in him that if you die you will live eternally. Do you believe that he paid the penalty for your sin that you deserve to pay on the cross.

If you believe in the person in the work of Jesus Christ on your behalf.

You will be saved and so do that today. If you've never done that in your listings that you've never heard this program before, and you're wondering what were talking about. This is the most important part of the program about who Christ is and what he came to earth to do. God demonstrates his own love toward us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Genuine conversion regeneration being born again putting your faith in Christ. However, you want to say it is the door to discernment so you can discern and understand the difference between truth and error.

Ultimately, if you reject Christ. What you're really doing is you're calling God a liar says in first John two who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Anyone who denies that Jesus is the Messiah is not just sort of you can take it or leave it know that person is actually a liar. According to Scripture, so all three of these pillars who God is, who man is who Christ is, must go together because when you come to genuine saving faith. God gives you something ultra-important. He gives you his own Holy Spirit to live inside you to illuminate you to understand his word and to understand the world around you. He gives you new eyes and a new mind and new heart to understand, so you can have discernment on not only spiritual things, but even on things that maybe the Bible doesn't talk about a covert vaccine you're going to be at a starting point of having better discernment to know what is the truth in this, you won't trust so easily what those who don't even believe in God are telling you you won't trust so easily man who's fallen and corrupt. What the court" experts say. Even if they been educated at the best universities in the country or hold high positions of authority and and position you will know anyone who doesn't believe in God who does understand the nature of man and who doesn't believe that Jesus is the Christ has to be very, very closely monitored everything the essay because they've already rejected the most important truths in life. So the more a source agrees with those pillars, the more I will trust it, and vice versa. The less they do, the less I will trust it back to the first question of the day were to get your news. What is your source of truth and if you want to be more discerning about all that's taking place. Read the word to understand better who this God is understand better the nature of the fallen nature of man in your own nature and believe in Jesus Christ as being the resurrection and the life as your only way to be saved. Trust in his work for you on the cross. His supernatural resurrection and not any of your own works. We tell the program today. How to know the truth when the truth is hard to know we will have a much easier time understanding the truth on even contemporary issues of our day when you know Jesus the way the truth and the life.
