Line Upon Line Series, The Book of John 8:12-20 - Who or What Bears Your Witness?
Manage episode 362919601 series 2898681
In our society today, there are so many voices bearing witness to who we are, some are true but there are quite a few that aren't. The world is suffering from an identity crisis and it's mainly because we are listening to voices that choose to not bear witness to the truth.
The scriptures mentions that there should be two or three witnesses that confirms what is legit. I don't believe this means everyone who is in agreement with you but as Jesus explains in Matthew 5:31-39 we can discover that witnesses can come from many ways but ultimately the deciding witness that bears with us is God and His truth.
There's 'Self' witness, 'Man's' witness, 'Works' witness, 'Word/Scripture' witness and more importantly 'God' witness. As humans we can think, say, or do something that word seem to bear witness of who we are but ultimately, if it doesn't line-up to who God says we are then we are giving birth to a lie.
So, who or what are WE allowing to bear witness of ourselves and do they or does it line up with the One who has CREATED us and DEFINED us?
