Truth is a Personality

John 8:32 - ...and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."

As closing elder, I shared the following comments with the congregation this morning.

"We are a broken people. As Christians we struggle with:

• mental and physical illnesses
• the effects of aging
• lost jobs and opportunities
• the lament and sorrow of loved ones who have predeceased us

But, we know in whom we believe. In the process of faith we discover that it is not about us. It is about the power of the gospel. We have found truth and it is setting us free. The revelation is that truth is a personality. [And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. John 1:14]

We have discovered that the things unseen are more important than those things that are seen. We are broken people who want to offer to other broken people the message of faith, hope and love."
