Over two thousand years ago a man asked Jesus the question, "what is truth?" (John 18:38)

 

In an age where there are many voices that are out there, how does one know the truth. This is some what similar to what John the Baptist must have been going through, as he was shut in prison. He decided to send his disciples to Jesus.


Luke 7:20-22
20 When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
21 And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.
22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.

As you see from the above passage, Jesus didn't try to prove that he was the Christ by, quoting the scriptures or trying to remind John about a common experience they had shared at his baptism when the Holy Dove descended on him. Instead he used the fruits of his ministry to show that the Kingdom of God was real and tangible.

In another place it is written, "For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power." (1 Cor 4:20)

It goes back to seed time and harvest. Right from the beginning the command was laid out.

Gen 1:11
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

This is why Jesus said, "..ye shall know them by their fruit." (Mat 7:16)

If the true seed of God is being nourished in a person, they will produce the proof by fruit bearing. So its really simple, a person that is living in the kingdom of God will manifest its authority, just like Jesus did and will be great to be around. He or she will bring hope, healing and Life to those that are around them.

Here is what Paul had to say to the Corinthians.

1 Cor 2:4-5  And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

It is a time for the true sons to arise with POWER not just words.  Desire only realty and shun away from meaningless philosophies that puff-up the mind but does very little to the true inward and man and your neighbor.

GOD IS REAL AND SO ARE WE
