Our Verse: John 14:6 Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
It gets harder and harder each day to find truth in our world. Many data streams today are corrupted with lies and misrepresentations- Think elections or Wikileaks! This makes many of us unwilling to accept any information. The result- we end up cynical.
We all yearn for data that we can trust, that we know to be accurate, reliable, true.
There actually is such a data stream. This information has been recorded by God Himself as a way of communicating with us. This data stream is His words, the Bible. It's complex, involving huge amounts of information. All of this information requires decryption, a special key to unlock it. Because of our pride, we don't want to ask God for the key. He works inside each one of us to break down that pride so we can humbly ask.
And what is this key, this tool to unlock God's words? It's a personal connection with Him, what we might call the faith key. You reach out to Him, “God show me the answers” and suddenly and progressively, He unlocks the information, you begin to understand. He gives you both facts and personal experience with Him so your trust, your faith, is based on reality and feelings!
It takes a lifetime to decrypt God's data stream. Parts of His message are very clear and easy to understand; other parts remain encrypted, closed. Daily reading of His words is our process to grasp His information.
Jesus spent his 33 year mission providing data about God and His ways. His coming was one of many ways God provided factual evidence for His existence. That evidence is God's data stream. Unlock your Bible with your faith and you will find satisfying answers.
