What is Truth?

Could it be that we have bought into the culture’s definition of speaking the truth and love and thus we have sanded it down the truth so it can be swallowed when in fact truth is love with all its intensity and strength. That intensity and strength in complete truth is perceived to be unkind because of culture’s definition of love, kindness and tolerance. The definition of truth has been twisted by society and must be brought back to the Word of the Almighty God.

 

The Word of God is a sword. Not a gum drop. Meant to split joints and marrow, soul and spirit. (Hebrews 4:12)

Don’t believe me. Pay attention to how Jesus spoke truth.

When we are sick we need the right medicine to cure us. Watered down truth, sanded down truth is weak medicine that only does part of the job and before long the ailment returns. We need the full truth, the full dose, the full strength to cure what ails us.

Do we truly want to be healed or just the pain taken away?  Do we just want the symptoms of what plagues us to be relieved while the disease remains or do we want the disease to die?  We need to die to ourselves, our sin and not just take enough truth to make the aches go away but to be healed.  Jesus did not just take abuse, floggings and insults for our sake.  He died.  He died to kill the consequences of sin, to atone for our sins.  He died on a cross. So do we want just a little bit of the truth, a little bit of Jesus, or the full dose?

There is only one cure to what ails us.  There is only one truth. The full strength, the full dose, the full truth.  Truth has a name and his name is Jesus.

If you haven’t done so already, I appeal to you to put all your trust in Jesus today.  There is only one Name in which we are saved.  There is only one way to the Father, and that is through the Son, the Savior, the King, JESUS!

He’s waiting.  Waiting just for you!
