The Whole Truth
'Ready Answer' by John O. ReidWhen we yield our wills to the truth of God, we are purified. As we allow God's Word to have its effect on our mind, we change, and this change produces sanctification. We become different and are thus set apart from those in the world. However, this purification or sanctification does not come without great cost. God's Holy Spirit guides us and reminds us of the truth, but taking the stand to apply it in our lives is up to us. God may place us in similar situations repeatedly until we finally grasp the need to change, but eventually, we must submit to the truth. Often, what God thinks is necessary is not what we want to do, and a struggle is born. Practically, truth is shutting out all deliberate falsehood and hypocrisy, whether conscious or unconscious. We are to shun all falseness presented to us and reflect truth in all our dealings with others. Truth builds and encourages, while falsehood tears down faith and trust. Jesus Christ tells us that if we abide in His word, we are His disciples indeed, and we shall know the truth, and the truth shall make us free. We will be free from superstitions, from wrong ways of living, and from the ungodly way this world does things, and in the process, we will be made fit for the Kingdom of God.
