You may rememberrepparttar story aboutrepparttar 126410 six blind men who felt different parts of an elephant. In describingrepparttar 126411 elephant, each told about his part ofrepparttar 126412 elephant. Each was tellingrepparttar 126413 truth, but each description alone did not paintrepparttar 126414 entire picture. They each had a part ofrepparttar 126415 whole, andrepparttar 126416 part did not adequately explainrepparttar 126417 whole. Granted, Christians do not all agree on every stated topic inrepparttar 126418 Bible; however, Christians do have a consensus on Jesus. He is what He said He is—the only begotten Son of God. The Bible says that believers see through a “glass darkly.” That means thatrepparttar 126419 understanding we now have can only be fully understood inrepparttar 126420 life that is to come. So, Christians should not boast arrogantly that they know everything there is to know about Christianity orrepparttar 126421 Bible. It just isn’t true. Christians should stand humbly inrepparttar 126422 truth that has been revealed to them byrepparttar 126423 Spirit of God, and win others torepparttar 126424 absolute truth about Jesus: He isrepparttar 126425 way,repparttar 126426 truth, andrepparttar 126427 life. This must be done with a loving heart for all mankind.

If there are no absolutes in this world then 2+2=12 or 6 or 8 or whatever it wants to equal—this is a child’s dream. If mathematics is relative, then a math student may use any answer he or she pleases. If there are no absolutes in this world, then why do we hold criminals accountable for wrongdoing? Why do we tell our children not to lie to us? How will they know what is a lie, and what is truth? There has to be absolute standards because there are absolute truths. God’s laws are absolute and universal. Honest—they are. I certainly wouldn’t lie to you about that! Pastor T.
