TRUTH OF LIFE MINISTRIES BRINGS JESUS’ FREEDOM TO MEN BY APPLYING BIBLICAL TRUTH TO THE UNHEALTHY WAYS MEN LIVE LIFE
Jesus also said: “If you abide in my word... you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)
Jesus’ freedom is complete and comes to stay forever
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. (John 8:36)
This freedom is achieved through listening prayer in which Jesus himself, through the Holy Spirit, speaks to each man leading him to biblical truth and replacing lies that hold him captive
"Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice” (John 18:37)
For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. “For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ. (1 Corinthians 2:11-16)
When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you. (John 16:13-15)
Freedom is also achieved by replacing the darkness of evil with the light of Jesus -- bringing things from the hidden to the private, which is confession
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)
Men need this freedom because they live in captivity as a result of their sin and the sin of others around theM
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. (Romans 1:18, 21, 24, 25)
TRUTH of LIFE Ministries is primarily working to clean the body of Christ and free it from captivity so it works properly and can grow in love, but this principle naturally translates into the healthiness of the corporation
For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. (Galatians 5:1)
And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherd and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ...speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love. (Ephesians 4:11-13, 15-16)
The Lord will bless both the business owners (stewards), for partnering with the Holy Spirit to set his people free, and the men, for being good stewards of their souls by working for their freedom. Productivity and Creativity will be restored as a natural result of seeking the Kingdom of God first
You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you. (Psalms 128:2)
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Matthew 6:33)
