Encounter the Truth

Jonathan Griffiths

Through faithful teaching of the Scriptures, we seek to facilitate encounters with the truth of God’s Word – and ultimately, with the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Truth that came down from heaven. Our prayer is that those who do not yet know Jesus will come to a saving knowledge of the truth, that believers will be grounded in the truth, and that local churches will be encouraged in their witness to the truth.

Encounter the Truth ·

2026/03/26

Jesus now appears to the Eleven, shows the truth of the resurrection, and opens their minds to see the whole sweep of God's salvation plan. He then returns to heaven to complete his journey. So we see the completion of Jesus’ return to paradise, as well as the completion of the journey of the disciples in understanding who Jesus is and what he came to do.

The followers of Jesus do not yet understand all that has taken place, but the risen Jesus shows them from the Scriptures the greater plan of God concerning himself. Their hearts burn as he opens the Scriptures, but only through the miraculous work of Jesus are their eyes opened to recognize him.

A Journey to Life

Encounter the Truth ·

2026/03/20

Just as he promised, Jesus has died and risen again. And because his word has been fulfilled, his invitation to paradise has been validated as true. And now we trust and serve a risen Lord. Our challenge is not to write off this miracle (as the apostles did initially), but simply to believe that it is true.

A Journey of Darkness

Encounter the Truth ·

2026/03/19

Jesus bears the judgment of God (symbolised by darkness) to open the way to his presence (symbolized by the tearing of the curtain). We look on in quietness and wonder (as the women did)—and we respond with grateful and costly devotion (as Joseph did).

A Journey of Pain (Part 2 of 2)

2026/03/18

Here we finally begin to see more appropriate responses to Jesus, mixed with continued mocking. Women mourn for him, and the criminal asks to be remembered by him. Ultimately, we must approach Jesus as he did—with nothing to offer, only humbly asking for his kindness toward us—that we too may have his welcome in paradise.

A Journey of Injustice( Part 2 of 2)

Encounter the Truth ·

2026/03/16

The whole process of the trial is shown to be an act of great injustice as the Righteous Lord submits himself to the judgment of unrighteous men. Again, we are to marvel at what Jesus endured for us, the guilty. And we are to take warning from the crowds who called for his death rather than falling before him in worship.

2026/03/12

On his way to the cross, Jesus faces abandonment by his closest allies. He alone can atone for sin—and he faces the cross alone. Our response is to marvel at what he underwent for us—and then to learn from the failings of his disciples and never desert our Saviour.

The Fall of the King (Part 2 of 2)

2026/03/10

Solomon’s glorious reign ended in tragedy. He turned to foreign wives and foreign gods. This is a cautionary tale for us; starting well is not the same as ending well. This also teaches us that Solomon is not the ultimate King to whom the promises of God point. There is indeed a greater King to come!

At the completion of the temple, Solomon prays for the people—that the Lord might be gracious to them and bless them. He then represents the people in offering praise and sacrifice to the Lord, and the people go home joyful for the Lord’s goodness to them. Here we have a picture of the bliss of living under the Lord’s King and in the Lord’s presence—a beautiful picture of what it will be like to live in the heavenly Jerusalem.

Through the obedience of a king who was a man of rest (and not of war), the Lord caused His temple to be completed as a fittingly beautiful house, so that He might dwell among the people. As Solomon labours in obedience to the Lord to complete this great project, we learn a pattern and key principles for how the work of the Kingdom moves forward.
