'Bible Truth For You' Does It's Blog

A Ministry in the Silent Void of Unconcern

Bible Truth For You is a ministry that enthusiastically embraces the Christian Fundamentalist perspective; that is, we believe that every word of the Bible is literally and totally true and are from God, accurately and faithfully recorded and preserved in the Received Text, which has authority over every person's life. God commands people to repent of sin, trust in the atoning work of God the Son Jesus Christ, believe and receive him as God. we are to be born anew in a new life by God the Holy Spirit and enter into a new and loving relationship with God. We should master his teaching from the Bible, pray, forsake the evil ways of this world, submit to God in all things, strive to live in purity and holiness, and live lives of love, empathy, charity, mercy, and understanding to all men, ministering God's truth so that they may be saved from destruction.

We do not embrace either right or left wing politics, capitalism or socialism, conservatism or liberalism, or any other system that has been invented by men. We advocate obedience to clear directives in the Bible from God for the conduct of every life and encourage every Christian to examine whether his beliefs are scriptural or merely very strong personal preferences. We believe that no Christian should ever elevate his preferences up to the same level as biblical doctrine or seek to teach or preach such opinions to others as God's Truth; such an act would be a sin before God and a denial of the gospel.
