  1. Re-digging Old Wells Genesis 26:18

  2. We Can Know The TruthJohn 8:32 • Jesus says we can know the truth. • Some say there is no truth. • Some say we cannot know the truth. • Whom do we believe?

  3. There are a number of New Testament passages that teach we can know the truth • (Ephesians 3:4; 5:17; 1 Timothy 3:15; 4:3; 1 John 2:21; 4:6). • Some passages may be difficult. • 2 Peter 3:16 says so. • That doesn’t mean it is impossible to know.

  4. We Must Preach The Whole TruthActs 20:27 • Some suggest… • . …we should “accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative.” • . …we should “connect more” with young people and the unchurched.

  5. The Bible teaches the need to preach all of the truth (Acts 20:20). • All the truth must be preached to produce true faith. • Faith comes from the word (Romans 10:17) • We must preach the word (2 Timothy 4:2-4)

  6. We Must Contend For The FaithJude 3 • Some are “shy” about confrontation. • Paul says to be “… set for the defense of the gospel” (Philippians 1:16). • He also says to strive for the gospel (Philippians 1:27). • We must remember we are in a fight (1 Timothy 6:12).

  7. We Must Not Be Like The WorldRomans 12:1-2 • We live in the world and must defend against its influence. • Jesus warned against worldliness (Matthew 13:22). • John warned against worldliness (1 John 2:15-17). • Loving the world can be disastrous (2 Timothy 4:10).

  8. We Must Be Committed To The WordActs 20:32 • Such a commitment will safeguard those in the faith (Acts 20:29-30). • Such a commitment will save those who will believe it (Acts 11:14).
