Love the Truth
Those who love the truth are always revolutionary.
John 14:1-6 ~ Jesus said, "Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust in me. There are many rooms in my Father's house; I would not tell you this if it were not true. I am going there to prepare a place for you. After I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going."
Thomas said to Jesus, "Lord, we don't know where you are going. So how can we know the way?"
Jesus answered, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. The only way to the Father is through me.
The cross is God’s truth to us, and therefore it is the only power that can make us truthful. When we know the cross, we are no longer afraid of truth. We need no more oaths to confirm the truth of our utterance, for we live the perfect truth of God There is no truth toward Jesus without truth toward man. Untruthfulness destroys fellowship, but truth cuts false fellowship to pieces and establishes genuine brotherhood. We cannot follow Christ unless we live in revealed truth before God and man.
~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Being truthful – always telling the truth – is revolutionary. Those who know the Truth can’t help but stand up for Him and tell others about Him. They can’t help but make a difference for Him. If those who say they know the Truth – that they know Jesus – don’t share Him, do they really know the Truth? Probably not. Those who know Him can’t deny Him. Knowing Him is just too life altering to go long without talking about Him.
Knowing Jesus changes things so that a person can’t just sit back in a comfortable lifestyle and do nothing while others swallow lies or are persecuted. Knowing Him means being a constant witness of the Truth and a constant catalyst of change for a better world. Whether it is on a large scale or a small scale, those who belong to Jesus make a difference.
Prayer:
Dear God – Help us to make a difference Lord – to allow you to change us. Help us to not sit idly by, but be a witness to the Truth, you Jesus.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen
