Holding Yourself Accountable To The Truth
from Pastor Jeffrey Walter Hosted by Christ Academy for All Nations
Many believers claim to know God, but what they often have is not an internal knowledge of Him—it is an external imagination of God projected onto their senses. This happens because they relate to the truth merely as information, rather than obeying it and cultivating a genuine love for it in their hearts. In this message, "Holding Yourself Accountable to the Truth", Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches that although truth initially reaches us as doctrine (external truth), true intimacy with God begins when we live by that truth, whilst holding ourselves accountable to it. He stresses that God is Truth, and Truth is a Person—not merely an idea to understand but a reality to embody. Merely engaging with Scripture externally leads to a false image of God and deception. True knowledge of the Lord (intimacy with the Lord) is developed by falling in love with the truth through overcoming temptations. May this message challenge you to hold yourself accountable to the truth as you listen to it prayerfully. Key Scripture: John 1:1 (KJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
