The Truth
1 John 2:
[4] He that said, I
know him, and keeps not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
[21] I have not
written unto you because you know not the truth, but because you know it,
and that no lie is of the truth.
2 Thes.2
[11] … God shall
send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
[12] That they all might be damned who believed not the
truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Pss.15
[1] Yehovah, who shall abide in your tabernacle? Who shall
dwell in your holy hill?
[2] He that walks
uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks
the truth in his heart.
[3] He that back
bites not with his tongue nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a
reproach against his neighbor.
[4] In whose eyes a
vile person is contemned; but he honors them that fear Yehovah. He that swears to his own hurt and changes not.
[5] He that puts
not out his money to usury, nor takes reward against the innocent. He that
doeth these things shall never be moved.
Pss.60
[1] O God, you have
cast us off, you have scattered us, you have
been displeased; O turn yourself to us again.
[2] You have made
the earth to tremble; you have broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it
shakes.
[3] You have showed
your people hard things: You have made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
[4] You have given a banner to them that fear you, that it
may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
Pss.117
[1] O praise Yehovah, all you nations: praise him, all you people.
[2] For his
merciful kindness is great toward us:
and the truth of Yehovah endures
forever. Praise Yah.
Pss.119
[142] Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
and your law is the truth.
Prov.23
[23] Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and
instruction, and understanding..
Isa.26
[1] In that
day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah;
We have a strong
city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.
[2] Open the gates that the
righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in.
[3] You will keep him in
perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trusts in you.
[4] Trust you in Yehovah for ever:
for
in Yehovah is everlasting strength:
[5] For he brings down them that
dwell on high; the lofty city, he lays it low; he lays it low, even to the
ground; he brings it even to the dust.
Jer.5
[1] Run you to and fro through the
streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places
thereof, if you can find a man,
if there be any that
execute judgment, that seek the truth; and I
will pardon it.
[2] And though they say, Yehovah lives; surely they swear falsely.
[3] O Yehovah, are not your eyes upon the truth?
Zech.8
[16] These are the things that you
shall do;
Speak you every man the
truth to his neighbor;
execute
the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
[17] And let none of you imagine
evil in your hearts against his neighbor; and love no false oath: for all
these are things that I hate, said Yehovah.
Mark
12
[28] And one of the scribes came,
and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered thm well, asked him, Which is
the first commandment of all?
[29] And Yeshua answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O
Israel; Yehovah our God is one Yehovah:
[30] And you shall love Yehovah your God with all your heart, and with all
your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your
strength: this is the first commandment.
[31] And the second is
like, namely this, you shall love your neighbor as thyself.
There is none other commandment
greater than these.
[32] And the scribe said unto
him, Well, Master, you have said the truth:
for there
is one God; and there is none other but he:
[33] And to love him with all the
heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the
strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more than all whole burnt
offerings and sacrifices.
John 5
[28] Marvel not at this: for the
hour is coming, in the which all that are in the
graves shall hear his voice,
[29] And shall come
forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life;
and they that
have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
[30] I can of mine own self do
nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just;
because I seek not mine
own will, but the will of the Father which had sent me.
[31] If I bear witness of myself, my
witness is not true.
[32] There is another that bears
witness of me;
and I know that the
witness which he witnesses of me is true.
[33] You sent unto John, and
he bare
witness unto the truth.
[34] But I receive not testimony
from man: but these things I say, that you might be saved.
[35] He was a burning and a shining
light: and you were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
[36] But I have greater witness than
that of John:
for the works
which the Father had given me to finish, the same
works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father had sent me.
[37] And the Father himself, which
had sent me, had borne witness of me.
You have neither heard
his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
John
8
[31] Then said Yeshua to those Jews which believed on him, If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples
indeed;
[32] And you shall
know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
[33] They answered him, we be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any
man: how say you, You shall be made free?
[34] Yeshua answered
them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever
commits sin is the servant of sin.
[35] And the servant abides not in
the house for ever: but the Son abides ever.
[36] If the Son therefore shall
make you free, you shall be free indeed.
[37] I know that you are Abraham's
seed; but you seek to kill me, because my word had no place in you.
[38] I speak that which I have seen
with my Father: and you do that which you have seen with your father. (the devil)
[39] They answered and said unto
him, Abraham is our father.
Yeshua said unto
them, If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of
Abraham.
[40] But now you seek to kill
me, a man that had told you the truth, which I have heard of God:
this did not Abraham.
[41] You do the deeds of your
father. Then said they to him, We be not
born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
[42] Yeshua said
unto them, If God were your Father, you would love me:
for I proceeded forth
and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
[43] Why do you not understand my
speech? Even because you cannot hear my word.
[44] You are of your father the
devil, and the lusts of your father you will do.
He was a murderer from the
beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth
in him.
When he speaks a lie, he speaks of
his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
[45] And because I tell
you the truth, you believe me not.
[46] Which of you convinces me of
sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe me?
[47] He that is of God hears
God's words: you therefore hear them not, because you are not of God.
John 14
[1] Let not your heart be troubled:
you believe in God, believe also in me.
[2] In my Father's house are many
mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for
you.
[3] And if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there
you may be also.
[4] And whither I go you know, and
the way you know.
[5] Thomas said unto him, Lord, we
know not whither you go; and how can we know the way?
[6] Yeshua said
unto him,
I am the way,
the truth,
and
the life:
no man
cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 17
[14] I have given them your word;
and the world had hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am
not of the world.
[15] I pray not that you should take
them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil.
[16] They are not of the world, even
as I am not of the world.
[17] Sanctify
them through your truth: your word is truth.
[18] As you have sent me into the
world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
[19] And for their sakes I sanctify
myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
[20] Neither pray I for these
alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their
word; (that’s us)
[21] That they all may be one; as
you, Father, are in me,
and I in You, that
they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that you have sent me.
[22] And the glory which you gave me
I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
[23] I in them, and you in me, that
they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may
know that you have sent me, and have loved them, as you have loved me.
[24] Father, I will that they also,
whom you have given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory,
which you have given me: for you love me before the foundation of the
world.
[25] O righteous Father, the world
had not known you: but I have known you, and these have known that you have
sent me.
[26] And I have declared unto them
your name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith you have loved me may
be in them, and I in them.
Rom.1
[18] For the wrath
of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of
men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
[19] Because that
which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God had showed it unto them.
[20] For the invisible
things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood
by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they
are without excuse:
[21] Because that,
when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but
became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
[22] Professing
themselves to be wise, they became fools,
[23] And changed
the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man,
and to birds, and four footed beasts, and creeping things.
[24] Wherefore God
also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own
hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:
[25] Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served
the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
[26] For
this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:
for even their women did change the
natural use into that which is against nature: (lesbians)
[27] And likewise
also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman,
burned in their lust one toward
another;
men with men working that which is unseemly,
and receiving in themselves that recompense
of their error which was meet. (Homosexual)
[32] Who knowing
the judgment of God, that they which commit such
things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in
them that do them.
2
Cor.13
[8] For we can do
nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
Gal.3
[1] O foolish
Galatians, who had bewitched you, that you should not
obey the truth, before whose eyes Yeshua the
Messiah had been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
Gal.4
[16] Am I
therefore become your enemy,
because I tell you the truth?
Eph.4
[21] If so be that
you have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Yeshua…
Some people are:
2 Tim.3
[7]
Ever learning,
and never able
to come to the knowledge of the truth.
2
Tim.4
[3] For the time
will come when they will not endure sound doctrine;
but after their own
lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
[4] And they shall turn away their ears from the truth,
and shall be turned unto fables.
Tit.1
[1] Paul, a servant
of God, and an apostle of Yeshua the Messiah,
according to the faith of God's elect,
and the acknowledging of the truth which is after
godliness;
[2] In hope of
eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
[3] But had in due
times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Savior;
[14] Not
giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men,
that turn from the truth.
1 John 1:
[6] If we say that
we have fellowship with him, and walk in
darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
[7] But if we walk
in the light, as he is in the light,
we have fellowship
one with another, and the blood of Yeshua the
Messiah his Son cleanses us from all sin.
[8] If we say that
we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1 John 3:
[19] And
hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts
before him.
John 18
[36] Yeshua answered, My kingdom
is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight,
that I should not be delivered to the Jews:
but now is my kingdom not from here.
[37] Pilate
therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Yeshua answered,
you say that I am a king.
To this end was I
born and for this cause did I come into the world, that I should bear
witness unto the truth.
Every
one that is of the truth hears my voice.
[38] Pilate
said unto him, What is truth?
And when he had
said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and said unto them, I find in him
no fault at all.
We are bound to
give thanks always to God for you, brothers and sisters, beloved of
the Lord,
because God had from the
beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit
and belief of the truth
where he called you by
our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Yeshua the
Messiah.
Therefore, brothers
and sisters, stand fast, and hold the traditions which you have been taught,
whether by the Word of God, or my website studies.
Now our Lord Yeshua the Messiah himself, and God, even our Father,
which had loved us, and
had given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace comfort your
hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.
In
closing for now:
2 Cor.13
[8]
For we can do nothing against the truth,
but for the truth.
Jas.3
[14]
But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie
not against the truth.
Praise
Yah
