All Truth Is God's Truth
by Tree Church Everyday on May 29th, 2026
Paul declares that God's "invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made." Creation itself testifies to the Creator, leaving humanity without excuse. Yet this natural revelation finds its fulfillment in Christ, "in whom all things hold together." The same Jesus who walked on water and calmed storms is the one who established the laws of physics. He doesn't violate His own creation; He authored it. As you reconstruct your faith, remember that all genuine truth—whether discovered in a laboratory or revealed in Scripture—ultimately points to the same Source. Don't be afraid of honest questions or new discoveries. God is big enough to handle your doubts and wise enough to guide your seeking. Walk forward in confidence, reading both of God's books with wonder. Read More

When our interpretations of Scripture conflict with observable reality, we must humbly reconsider our understanding rather than reject truth. God invites us into honest inquiry, not fearful rigidity. Your faith doesn't need to be threatened by scientific discovery; instead, let it expand your understanding of God's magnificent design. The same God who "makes winds his messengers" and "flames of fire his servants" invites you to explore His creation with wonder and reverence. Truth is never the enemy of faith. Read More
