Live Not by Lies,Part 2

This sermon concludes the subject Mr. Smith began last week. In living our lives not by lies we must learn how to live our lives according to God's truth as revealed in his word (John 17:17). Jesus gave us an example of this in his encounter with Satan in Matt. 4 where Jesus answered each of Satan's deceptive statements by quoting scripture. In our efforts to teach these concepts to our children, Mr. Smith points us to the first two chapters of Genesis where we find much truth that we need to pass on to our children.
