Why do you believe what you believe? Do you stand on a firm foundation of truth and facts? What is it that makes your ground firm?
A few years ago there was an amusement park ride called something like the “gravitational pull”. Once you entered the round room you were supposed to place your feet and hands against the wall. Once the ride began the walls would spin faster and faster in a circular motion. After you felt like you were moving in a rapid circle your hands and feet would stick to the wall and the floor would drop about five feet not allowing you to touch the floor. You were left hanging on the wall in a spinning room hoping the floor would soon return to your feet.
Too often people today claim they believe certain things without having a firm foundation to stand on. When the bottom falls out they do not know what to do, being left in a spinning room hanging on the wall. If someone were to ask you today why your belief is true then do you have a firm foundation? The truth is the only firm foundation.
My ground is firm because of the facts and the truth. Here are a few facts:
1. The Bible has over 5000 historical documents of testimony. Caesar only has 1000 document and Aristotle 1400.
2. The Bible was written by over 40 different authors and has 66 books, yet holds consistency.
3. The Bible holds the greatest wisdom ever told.
4. Jesus was a person who changed the world.
The truth is that the facts lead to the truth. Jesus is “the truth, the way and the life” and no one can get to the one true God except by knowing the truth. Do you believe the truth or are you believing a lie? Weigh the facts and see the truth. The truth is firm ground.
