Truth For Sale

Transcripts for Dr. Wiersbe's sermons are forthcoming. Below is an outline of his message.

Psalm 23:23 says, “Buy the truth and sell it not.”

Three discoveries we make from Psalm 23:23:

• There is such a thing as the truth.
  • Our world tries to make truth relative to what each person believes.
  • Relativism is an excuse to do whatever we want to do.
  • God is a God of truth.
  • All of science is based on the truths God built into the universe at creation.
  • God has given us three editions of truth: Christ, the Bible, and the Holy Spirit.
  • Truth is for the heart, so God gave us someone to love.
  • The Bible tells us how to live a life of truth, and the Holy Spirit gives us the power to do so.
  • We must love, learn, and live the truth through Jesus, the Bible, and the Holy Spirit.
  • What is your relationship with the truth?
  • Repentance is acknowledging the truth.
  • We cannot live true lives without a proper relationship to the Truth.
• The truth costs something.
  • We don’t pay for our salvation, but it cost God something to give us the truth.
  • God gave us our own minds, hearts, and wills; but sometimes we choose the wrong things to love, learn, and live.
  • Jesus had to die for us to have the truth.
  • Other Christians have sacrificed their lives to defend the truth.
  • Are we willing to give up ourselves for the truth?
  • Don’t get your truth secondhand—dig for it yourself.
• The truth can be sold.
  • We should never sell the truth in exchange for something else.
  • Selling the truth is like deliberately blinding yourself or killing your senses.
  • When we give up truth, we lose our character.

Have you come face to face with the truth?
