Costa Rica, Day 1 Part 1

What Are Absolutes?

Our everyday lives find structure in the thousands of things we accept as truths, from the numbers we use to the names of colors and textures. There are absolutes in the Bible, and they are constants in the spiritual realm, just as "2+2" is a constant in the physical realm.

Absolutes of God is about the Word of God and its building blocks of truth -- "the first principles of the oracles of God" (Hebrews 5:12) -- which have been forgotten or misplaced.

In our society, we have insisted that diversity is good. In reality, what we have are divisions created by an ignorance of God's definition of truth. The one Authority who can settle all arguments in the controversies that divide us is the Holy Ghost, and we have ignored Him!

God's desire is that the words He spoke become alive in His people so that He is seen in His church. God wants to be visible, not only to His church, but also to the whole world. He wants to see truth believed and lived out in front of the entire world.

Seven Absolutes of God

1. God's will for man is that he be perfect in Christ Jesus.

2. The knowledge of good and evil does not produce godly believers or healthy Christians.

3. The natural man does not receive the things of God.

4. Every believer must know the voice of God.

5. The Holy Ghost is the Teacher sent from God to indwell every believer.

6. Once we repent of our sins, we become His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus.

7. The Bible was written both historically and spiritually.

1 Corinthians 13

1	Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2	And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3	And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4	Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5	Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6	Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7	Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8	Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9	For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10	But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11	When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12	For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13	And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

1 Corinthians 13

Ephesians 4

11	And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12	For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13	Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14	That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

Ephesians 4:11-14
