He Will Be Great

I’m taking a short break from writing the blog over the holidays. Be inspired by the greatness of our Lord Jesus in my Christmas message, “He Will Be Great.”

“He Will Be Great,” by Craig Brian Larson

Pillar and Buttress of Truth

One of the common refrains that you hear from people today is that they believe in God, but not in organized religion. In other words, they want God, but they do not want the church.

What 1 Timothy 3:15 tells us is, that attitude is a huge mistake. If you choose to reject the church, then you are opening yourself to falsehood and deception, for the church is a pillar and buttress of truth.

This is the fourth message in the series, You and Truth.

You and Truth: Getting Help from the Spirit of Truth

There is good news for anyone who sincerely wants to know and follow the truth. You are not on your own trying to understand Jesus and the Bible. You are not left to your own intelligence and reasoning powers. Finding the truth is not like signing up for an advanced math class in college that may leave you feeling as though you are in over your head, as though you have jumped into the deep end, and now you may drown. No, when you choose to follow Jesus and the Bible, God gives you another helper, the third person of the Trinity, who is the Holy Spirit.

You and Truth, pt. 1

By Craig Brian Larson

When truth goes, all is lost. When you lose truth, you lose meaning and purpose, you lose right and wrong, you lose confidence, you lose hope, you lose the light.

But Jesus said, “For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world—to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” (John 18:37)

Here is how you can be sure you have the truth about what matters most in life.
