“IS IT REALLY possible for a person to KNOW the truth…?”
There are so many opinions about what the Bible teaches. “Is truth even attainable in the religious realm?”
These are common questions today. Consider a few observations from Scripture:
How can a person be expected to OBEY (Hebrews 5:8-9) Christ if he is incapable of knowing what constitutes obedience to Christ?
How can a person be expected to ABIDE IN (John 8:31) the word of Christ if he is unable to learn and know Christ’s teaching?
How can a person be expected to PROVE (1 Thessalonians 5:21; cf. 1 John 4:1) what the Bible says if the truth cannot be distinguished from error?
How can a person be expected to CONTEND (Jude 3) earnestly for the truth if the truth is unattainable?
How can a person be expected to BEWARE (Matthew 7:15; cf. 2 John 7) of false teachers if there is no discernible way of telling whether or not they are teaching error?
How can a person be expected to SPEAK (Ephesians 4:15) the truth in love if he is unable to differentiate between truth and error?
Yes, we can know the truth. (Mike Benson at: http://www.forthright.net/)
