Writing the Truth

Tuesday, April 24, 2012

Jesus told Pilate that He came to witness to the Truth and that those who seek the Truth listen to His voice.  We cannot honestly speak about being authentically Christian without speaking the Truth.  In today's world there is far more emphasis on being politically correct and attempting to avoid offending certain groups or individuals than on being honest and truthful.  Truth has no gray areas.  It is pure white.  Untruth or falsehood is pure black (without the light of God, who IS Truth).  Any "gray" areas dilute the Truth by mixing it with untruth or through distortion.  Because this blog is dedicated to promoting and defending authentic Christianity, we must also be devoted to the Truth, at least as far as we know it.  Consequently, some - even a great deal - of what we write will be controversial.  There are some who will be offended by the Truth.  To them, in advance, we apologize and regret that they take offense at what we write.  However, we will not apologize for writing the Truth.  Were we to do so, we ourselves would be false to our baptismal promises and to the purpose of this blog.
