The God of Truth

Overview

We’re in a series in which each week we’re looking at one of the attributes or characteristics of God according to the Bible. This week, we’re going to look at how God is a God of truth, and therefore, how God gives us his Word of Truth by inspiring the authors of the Scripture to write the Scripture. The Lord of the Word gives us the Word of the Lord. Psalm 119, which is the longest chapter or psalm in the whole Bible with 176 verses, is all about how the Scripture isn’t just a wonderful set of wise teachings but it is itself God’s Word of Truth.

What we’ve done is pull out a certain number of them so we can give an overview of this very important part of Christian belief. What we’re going to see here is four basic ideas. These verses tell us four things. They show us the truth God gives us, what that truth can do in you if you embrace it, how you must use that truth if it’s going to do that, and who can help you do it.
