How can we know if something is true?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Start by asking another question,
How can we know if it’s from God?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And, another question,
How does it match with the Bible?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Anyone who wants to do the will of God will know whether my teaching is from God or is merely my own.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– – –<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So the search for truth boils down to this—sooner or later we must recognize that the Bible is the source of truth and the standard for truth to measure everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The search for truth brings another soul-searching question,
Do I want to do the will of God?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then the search for truth is up to the individual’s willingness to spend time in the Bible every day. It’s that simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning: Remember Satan’s first words in the third chapter of the Bible—effective then and ever since,
