Hard Truths.

                                                                          Hard Truths.


We must Die to Self, before we can Embrace Hard Truths!


I am the Bread of Life.  Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.  But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die.  I am the living bread that came down from heaven.  Whoever eats “this bread” will live forever.  This bread is my flesh, “which I will give for the life of the world”.  Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves.  “How Can This Man Give Us His Flesh To Eat”?  (John 6:48-52)


Few Great Things Have Been Done Within the Confines of the Accepted Norm.


God’s Word , the Bible, is Truth.  What Are “Hard Truths”?


Hard Truths - The convicting, counter-cultural, or difficult teachings of Scripture.  These are doctrines that challenges human pride, require personal sacrifice, or confront sin.  Unlike comforting promises of grace, they call the Believers to “radical obedience and self-denial”. 


Our Daily Nugget Scriptures are Hard Truths!


Imagine a man today who is saying that he is the Bread of Life, sent by God, for the People to Eat His Flesh.  I give my flesh to be eaten for the life of the world.  John the Baptist, whom God described as “The Best Man To Have Ever Lived”, did not fit into the Accepted Norm.  He would not be allowed into Pulpits Today; he was a Hard Truth.  


                                                                  “Beware of Religion and Tradition!


One of the Best Things we can do for the Lord, ourselves, our households, is to Embrace Hard Truths.  We must die to self, religions, traditions, worldly desires, etc.; before we can Live for God by Embracing Hard Truths.  To Embrace Hard Truths Leads to Life.  To reject Hard Truths leads to death and continued darkness.


To rather be “wrong than to be corrected” is a

Heart/Mind Positioned to Reject Hard Truths; and Choosing to “Embrace A Lie”.


If we do no Study The Bible,

We Will Never Know What “Hard Truths” Are.  Study for Life and Light.

The Heart/Mind.

                                                                        The Heart/Mind. The Heart/Mind of Christ or the Heart/Mind of Satan?   Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be “likeminded”, “Having the Same Love”, “being of one accord, of one mind”.   “Let nothing be done” through “strife or vainglory”; but in “lowliness of mind (heart) let each esteem other better than themselves”.   Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.   “Let This Mind (Heart) Be In You”, “which was also in Christ Jesus”.   (Philippians 2:2-5) The Heart/Mind of Christ is “A Priceless Blessing”; Available to Us. Our Daily Nugget is Paul letting the Church at Philippi and us know that Kingdom Citizens should be “Of One Mind (Heart/Thinking)”.   Since we have One Lord, One ...

Real Strength!

                                                                           Real Strength!   “Real Strength” is Humility - “Real Weakness” is Pride.. In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders.   All of you, clothe yourselves with “humility” toward one another, because   “God Opposes the proud” but Shows “Favor” to the Humble”.   “Humble yourselves”, therefore under God’s Mighty Hand, that He may lift you up in due time.   Cast all your anxiety on Hum “Because He Cares For You”. (1 Peter5:5&6) The Humbled Heart/Mind has God Fighting For Them;   “That’s Real Strength”, “That’s God’s Favor”! Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “We All Need To Clothe Ourselves in Humility”, because; God opposes the Proud, and that God “Shows Favor to the ...
