Proverbs 30:5-6(NLT) Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection. Do not add to his words, or he may rebuke you and expose you as a liar.

Is That Really So?
No one can speak the truth much more live by the truth – if they don’t know the truth. We create our own versions of truth, but there will always be the dangerous risk of leading someone who is seeking the real truth down the wrong path. If we are sensitive to the Holy Spirit, we will hear Him ask us, “Is that really so?” You see, any version of truth outside of scripture is false truth that originates from a faithless and self-serving place. Our God doesn’t do us that way. Every word He speaks to us is truth, and shines light. God makes it easy for us to seek and trust Him for all the answers we need to find. Before we decide to create an answer to something we really aren’t sure about, let’s stop and check ourselves with the question, “Is that really so?” We ourselves and those who are seeking truth deserve to walk in the Light of truth and not in the shadows of lies.
