It is hard to hear in a room of echoes. So many voices saying so many different things, so many irrelevant things. What we need is steady exposure to the truth. Jesus is the Truth. We need to hear Him. Distinguishing His voice is less challenging when we are not listening to the voices of others. Poonen's advice in this message is spot on.Whatever you believe about the times, we must all admit that deception is the greatest threat to us. Let's all put away the chatter of so many voices and refuse to hear all but one.
Amen..John 14:6 JESUS IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.IN THIS HOUR I believe we need to be so so full of HIS truth to see, to hear to discern.//biblehub.com/romans/7-11.htm - 18k2 Timothy 3:13 ... while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. ...They will deceive others and will themselves be deceived. ... If we know the TRUTH WE WILL NOT BE DECEIVED..1 COR 6:9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,We must know HIS WORD.. Gen to Rev.. nothing should surprise us.. in HIMFrannie
