When the very first sin was committed on this planet, it was done because of a lie told. The serpent known as Satan slithered a lie from his mouth to the vulnerable mind of Eve. "Surely," Satan said to Eve. "Surely, you will not die if you eat from the Tree of Knowledge. God does not want you to be like Him."
With that lie, Eve ate the forbidden fruit. Then she lied to her man Adam who followed suit eating the fruit. Then Adam lied to God.
Every since then, mankind has resorted to lying to cover up their mistakes, and even to write history. Have you ever considered if everything we have ever learned has been the truth?
Were there weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?
Was 9/11 an inside job?
Did the Holocaust actually happen? And was Hitler really as bad as history has judged him to be?
Was Pearl Harbor an inside job?
Was the Great Depression planned by our government in order to gain more power?
Was the Civil War really about slavery?
There are so many questions about the past because history is written by the victors.
One thing I have come to accept as truth is that God doesn't lie to me. His Word is truth and eternal. So I rest upon that and try not to be too concerned about the lies of this world. This world will never tell the truth. Remember, it was a lie that introduced the first sin into this world. So the truth is not in this world, and those of the world will never completely tell the truth.
