Of course I want truth ( and yes, I can handle the truth ). I answered  " What is the truth? " Why ? If I never hear truth, then I cannot know it.

I understand Archeologists point maybe? .... when some self-professed Christians are given the literal truth of the Bible some will make excuses or get defensive rather than accept it, particularly if it means an opinion or lifestyle change is in order.

So did you answer ? I noticed there wasn't an option for " I have the truth, thank you ".  ;)

I already have the truth. But I am willing to listen to your version of the truth to see if it differs from my truth.

LadyKay,

How many versions of the truth are there? :)

Yeah, pretty much everyone wants the truth so I don't know what this poll will reveal.  It will be interesting to find out.  I'm not voting myself because I don't understand the reason for the poll.

But what if theyre defensive because they have the literal truth, or at least what they think it is, and your trying to spread a false truth? Many false prophets will tell you to your face "this is the literal Gospel truth" 

Fact is none of us will have everything 100% right on this earth. We may seek the truth but as long as we're on this earth we won't get it all right. And someone says I know the full literal truth of thebi le it can be assumed that they're lying.

what exactly is the point of this? Do you really thing anyone will say anything besides they want the truth? You really think someone, who honestly, wants a lie, is going to answer this poll honestly?

Its interesting that 2/3rd of the respondents want the truth, but 1/3rd are asking "What is truth?" The simple answer is that truth is everything that has been revealed by God to men -- Divine revelation.  And of course this is found in the Word of God (not in corrupt versions but in pure translations and in the traditional Hebrew and Greek texts), and in the 66 books of our English Bibles [the Hebrew Bible (Tanach) has only 24 books, which have been split up to give a total of 39 books in our Bibles].

we all want the truth , but when people are set in there ways, many are not able to handle the truth  !

or they want a watered down version of the truth.

interesting to note that there have been 4 posters and only 2 votes

oh as an addendum to the my response above, reading this website i see many people opting for interpretation over the truth or they will accept what they feel they want to be the truth and fight against those who bring the real truth to the forums.

I've yet to see anyone bringing 'the real Truth' in this thread.

Jesus loves us all, died for our sins, and sits at the right hand of His ( and our ) Father in Heaven.

Are you suggesting that we are all "at sea"?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
