Understanding the Bible Series 13

Description
This episode continues our journey through understanding the Bible. We explore the profound truth that transcends its source, emphasising that truth remains valid regardless of who articulates it. Our speaker, Pst. Victor Markus delves into the biblical account from John 11, where Caiaphas, the high priest, unknowingly prophesied about the death of Jesus, highlighting that even those outside the faith can speak truth. This principle is further illustrated through various New Testament references to non-canonical texts, demonstrating that while these sources are not inspired scripture, they can still convey truth. The sermon draws attention to the Apostle Paul's use of quotes from secular authors and philosophers, such as Aratus and Epimenides, to engage with his audience and convey spiritual truths. By examining these instances, we are reminded that truth is self-validating and not dependent on the credibility of its source. This message encourages us to discern truth and stand firm in our faith, knowing that the ultimate truth is found in the Gospel of Christ. Join us as we navigate the intricate relationship between truth, scripture, and non-biblical sources, reinforcing the importance of understanding and defending the faith with confidence.
