How Do We Know Truth?

How Do We Know Truth?

Clear vision is crucial for navigating the maze of life. But what if we don’t see as well as we think we do? How can we tell if we’re Seeing Clearly? The question, "Can we trust our own sight?" is one of several recurring themes in the Bible, which is pretty amazing when you consider it's a compilation of 66 literary works composed by around 40 different authors over about 1500 years! Over and over again, we see our perspective clashing with God’s, bringing up a choice: Whose sight will we trust more – His or ours?

This Week's Sermon: How Do We Know Truth?
Our sight seems right
But our sight is limited
God sees fully and offers freely

Talk It Over

Keep growing in your relationship with Jesus through the Word, prayer, and community!
• Reach out to a few people you already know – friends, coworkers, etc. – and find a time when you can connect each week. (Note: Due to the pandemic, we're recommending groups of 4-7.)
• Not sure how to start the conversation? Head to npberean.org/grow for a few simple ideas you can use to get started today!

Next Week's Sermon

Have you ever heard someone say, "What's wrong with me doing this? I'm not hurting anyone." We'll explore that line of thinking as we discover whether we can ever make that comment (remember that our sight is limited). We'll study a passage which gives us insight into (and refutes) this line of thinking.
