Gospel Moments (6): Truth–Review, Reflect, and Revise

Genesis 1:1 ESV

In the beginning,

God created the heavens

and the earth.

Genesis 1:27 ESV

So God created man in his own image,

in the image of God he created him;

male and female he created them.

If we believe that

God is God,

that He created ALL THINGS,

and that He is LORD OF ALL,

we want to take these

truths to heart

by thoroughly

meditating upon them

and aligning our thinking

according to the

TRUTH.

The words of the Bible are

TRUTH.

We want to establish all of

our thinking upon the

foundation of

TRUTH.

In order to do this

we must first strip away every

FALSEHOOD.

We must put away all

vain imagination,

erroneous ideas,

bad habits,

lies of the enemy,

personal opinion,

traditions of men

bad habits,

“arguments,

and every lofty opinion

raised against the

knowledge of God,

and take every thought

captive to obey Christ.”

What we think and

what we think about

and what we believe matters.

We want to build our lives upon

TRUTH.

2 Corinthians 10:3-6

For though we walk in the flesh,

we are not waging war according

to the flesh. For the weapons

of our warfare are not of the flesh

but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy

arguments and every

lofty opinion raised

against the knowledge of God,

and take every thought captive to

obey Christ, being ready to

punish every disobedience,

when your obedience is complete.

Take time to review the

previous Gospel Moments so far

and reflect on the truths.

Ask the Lord by His grace to

help revise your thinking

so that all of your thoughts

come up under His authority

and align with His Word.

Ask Him to help you establish a

solid foundation upon which

to build a life-changing

understanding of the Gospel.

Before

you begin your review,

pray through

the prayer and

Scriptures below

asking God for His mercy

and grace.

Lord, I want to worship you.
