John 18:37 "Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears my voice."

Satan is the father of lies
As I was thinking it has occur to me that everything we are taught since we were born has been a lie, think about it. Here are some examples: one being that the drugs that you take are going to help you feel better but in reality you are dealing with the symptoms of what is ailing you but not the root problem. We are told that we live in a free country and are able to exercise our rights but yet if we want to build something on our property we must have some government official to give approval plus pay some type of fee in order to build something. And then we are told that the Church will tell you the truth about how to get right with God yet there are half truths and that the minsters are not concern about the sheep as a shepherd but are there to make money or to better position themselves to another job that will allow them to be more important or move up the corporate (church) ladder or to make more money. They tell you cute little stories that have nothing to do with salvation, they are telling you what you want to hear, that is you can continue in sin and yet be saved, this is false and will destroy your soul. The world we live in is under the domain of Satan and he is known in the Bible as the father of lies, this explains why there is no truth in this world. But Christ stated that He is the Truth, which is revolutionary because there has never been anyone else in history to make that claim except Him, but more important is that we as human beings should long for or pursue that Truth because it is the only thing that makes us complete and satisfy because He(God) was our creator. As creatures we know no better but the one who make us would know. The whole point is Christ is the Truth there is no life without Him, except lies that will condemn us to Hell(everlasting damnation). We are told that particular mate (woman or man) will make us complete when it reality it doesn't, we are disappointed with life because it does not satisfy our souls. Remember the story of the woman at the well in Samaria in John chapter 4:7-26, remember her thoughts as she marvel that Jesus would provide water that would take care of her thirst so that she would not have to come to the well to draw water. And Christ is speaking of living(spiritual) water that would refresh your soul and give you life because He knew men and their souls have a longing that needs to be satisfy and man is in pursue of it in the wrong places. God knows what best for us if we would listen and do what His Word says and we would seek Him out.
