To the Church, those who represent
the Great Witness of Christ, “Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? So help you God.” Truth is a noun - that which is consistent with the mind, will, character, glory, and being of God. Truth IS God's Holy Word - and through His Word all things were made new again. In His Word is the light of men - the light that gives life again; and the Light that shines from God’s Holy Word. The Word brings light to the darkest night; the light pulls out that which is good, right and true. Therefore I say, test and prove what is pleasing to the Lord - live out your faith according to God’s Holy Word. Do not be imitators of the world. Do not exchange the TRUTH of God for a lie. Out of respect for Christ, we are to provide a powerful witness to humankind; that is right, "the world" - the place that David describes in Pslam 23, as the Valley of the Shadow of Death. We are to testify to the Truth and lead people to the Holy Word. For these words are faithful and true. “Behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of prophecy in this book.” Revelation 22:6-7 The TRUTH is God alone is Lord; and the Bible is God’s scroll - the Word of God that was communicated by His Holy Spirit into the hearts and minds of men. The TRUTH is God is sovereign, and no matter how much or hard we try - unrighteous acts cannot be justified. The TRUTH is it’s only the blood of Christ that can wash away our sin; it’s only God’s Holy Word that can make us whole again. You see, before we were saved, we stood before God as filthy rags - slaves to uncleanliness. Sin sure knows how to leave ugly stains; we are all in desperate need of God’s cleansing! But the moment we believe that Jesus is our Savior and King, God immediately forgives all of our sin - “He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from unrighteousness.” The blood of Jesus even cleanses our conscience, the leading part of our human spirit. Hebrews 9:14 says, “How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself to God without blemish, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” The TRUTH is Jesus, and God’s Holy Spirit; and the true witness is the one whose heart is covered by the blood of the Lamb. I tell the truth, when we accept Jesus as Lord, we become His Children - adopted into His royal family and citizens of Heaven. And the moment we proclaim Jesus as Lord, God sends His Holy Spirit to make us born again. The TRUTH will set you FREE!
