I am the way , the TRUTH and the life no one comes to the Father except thru Me.
JOHN 14:6
Either God's word is truth or its not.
What do you🫵🏾 believe?
Look around the United States today. We are living in a post-truth culture where "your truth" and "my truth" are celebrated, and absolute truth is viewed with suspicion. This cultural shift has bled deep into the church.
Cafeteria Christianity is the ultimate symptom of this crisis. It’s highly appealing because:
👉🏼 It allows people to avoid the friction that comes with standing on biblical truth in a secular world.
👉🏼 It lets people feel religious without ever having to submit to an authority higher than themselves.
👉🏼 It creates a customized, edited faith—one that is ultimately powerless, unable to transform lives, anchor a culture, or save anyone.
If the Bible isn’t entirely true, then the entire structure of Christianity completely collapses. You cannot undermine one part of Scripture without undermining the whole thing.
Think about it logically: if we decide that the creation account is just a myth, or that certain historical events didn't actually happen, we are calling God a liar. More than that, we create a devastating domino effect:
📖 We replace God's authority with our own. The moment we say part of the Bible is wrong, we set ourselves up as the ultimate judge over Scripture, rather than letting Scripture judge us.
📖 We erode the Gospel. If the historical details of the Old Testament can't be trusted, why should we trust the New Testament accounts of the Resurrection?
📖 We contradict Jesus Himself. Jesus routinely treated the Old Testament as absolute, literal history—mentioning everything from Jonah (Matthew 12:40) to Noah’s flood (Luke 17:26). He pinned His entire authority on the unchangeable perfection of the text, declaring that not an iota or a dot would pass from the Law until it was all accomplished (Matthew 5:18).
✨ If the Bible is wrong about earthly history, how can we stake our eternal souls on what it says about heavenly eternity? To reject inerrancy is to completely undermine the authority of Christ. If the foundation is faulty, the whole house falls.
