Truth and Light

Matt Miles • November 27, 2015

     Light resides in our heart in the midst of a dark world (2 Cor. 4:6). We here at Creation Truth will proclaim that Truth and Light as long as we have breath. I am convinced our ministry is one of the most important ministries in the dark world today. We are proclaiming the light of the Truth. If God’s Word is not true in Genesis, then it’s not true in John either. If the history in Genesis is not actual history, then neither is the promise for our destiny. These truths are vital to our walk and salvation. Many are being blinded by the darkness – the darkness of evolutionary science that is driven by atheistic, humanistic, and deceitful men; the darkness of old earth theology that drives a wedge between a man’s heart and the light of Truth.

     There are several ways we need your support. First, we need your prayer support as the days get darker until we see His Light come in fullness again. Second, financially we need to raise an extra $8,000-$10,000 per month to meet all ministry needs. Along with the monthly financial need, we would like for you to consider a year-end gift. These special gifts are one way we make it through the winter months when there are less opportunities to teach. Third, we have a need for some couples or teams that would be willing to cook for our Institute for Biblical Worldview Studies Cadre program. Four times a year we bring in Cadre members to our facilities to train and teach Biblical worldview. During those meetings we provide all of their meals, so we need cooks. Fourth, we need to be invited back to many of your churches. For some of our newsletter recipients, it has been many years since we have come and ministered alongside your church. There are also some of you that I have never had the opportunity to meet, so I need to come and share our message that the Lord has imparted to me as well. So, now is a great time to come alongside of us and get involved as we spread the Light of our Glorious Creator and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Baby Jesus Figurine

Here we are again, just a few days before Christmas. It seems the old adage, “The older you get the faster time flies,” is so true. There is not a year that passes when we look back and think, “Wow, this year took forever!” History is passing by and we look forward to the new year as we continue to focus on our eternal destiny. Our theme this year has been, HISTORY & DESTINY. Christmas is a great time to reflect on these two realities. Everyone has “Christmas history”, as I term it - those moments from past Christmases that are remembered year after year. Maybe it’s a great family gathering or Christmas activity that has become a beloved tradition. All of those moments are formed by previous years’ experiences. Sometimes this season can be tough, as we may have that memory of a loved one that has passed or other difficulties that we may be facing. Christmas history is always impactful, be it good or bad. This makes me reflect on the first Christmas. For Mary and Joseph, there was no previous history like that moment, per se. Yet, the history of the prior four thousand years had been preparing for the manger, the moment in history that our Savior would be born and begin Christmas history for all of us. Whether it is acknowledged or not, without Jesus’ birth in history, none of this season happens. Each and every Christmas our desire is to make those “Christmas history” memories for our family. Our desire is to impact the future of our family, our destiny. Often our efforts fall short or are interrupted by things out of our control. In those moments, so much stress can come from our efforts not going as planned. Sometimes it ends up ruining the whole season, especially if our focus has not been on the simple fact that He was born to bring peace, not stress. Let us not forget that it didn’t start the way Mary and Joseph had planned, with no room in the inn. But the Lord provided a place for them to rest and deliver the baby. Immanuel, God with us, is the bell ringing for all eternity that started that first Christmas. Our eternal destiny hinges on whether we acknowledge who He is everyday, not just in this season. Yet, this season is most assuredly a great time to emphasize His gift of life for all eternity. Our Creator became as one of His image bearers in that stable under imperfect conditions. He joined HISTORY and DESTINY that moment in time. The years of history that prepared the world for the child born that first Christmas would give us hope for all eternity. Jesus is the marker for all history. Because of that moment in time, our life can have peace for eternity through Him. May we all focus on the culmination of HISTORY & DESTINY during our family Christmas celebrations this year. Our history is written but our destiny is hope in Jesus Christ, our Creator and Savior. Blessings this season to you and your family from all of us here at Creation Truth Foundation!
