God's word is balanced with grace, salvation, truth and justice.
For many many years now we have heard much about the grace of God.
That is good, however there is much more to the word of God than grace.
Grace gets you into your salvation, but truth and justice will train you as to how you are to live in this grace.
John 1:17
For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Jesus said, that He is the way, the truth and the life.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life, No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Jesus states here that He is truth.
Why would some in the modern day church compromise the truth of God's word?
What they are doing is compromising Jesus Himself.
Grace should never be preached at the expense of truth.
They go together, God's word says, Grace and truth came,
Jesus is grace and truth. You must have one as well as the other.
Grace provides for salvation through faith, truth trains you so you will know how you are to live in your new salvation, in this new kingdom you are now apart of,
that is if you have received Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
Your new life in Christ. Truth will lead you to a victorious life while on this earth.
Some truths we may not like, for instance, love your enemy, do good to those who despitefully use you, that is a truth in God's word and it goes against our natural mindset.
But it is still God's truth to live by in the new kingdom we have entered through Christ, it is every bit a part of our new life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth.
John 16:13
"However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak in His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
Justice, is doing what is right, from the truth of God's word.
Isaiah 30:18
Therefore the Lord will wait, that He may be gracious to you; And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you.
For the Lord is a God of justice; Blessed are those who wait for Him.
Deuteronomy 32:4
Ascribe to our God, He is the Rock, His work is perfect; For all His ways are justice, A God of truth and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He.
Beloved, all the word of God is truth, the Holy Spirit being the author.
Never take God's word out of context, read the whole chapter to gain the knowledge of truth that God the Holy Spirit wants you to know.
You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. It is the knowing of truth, that makes you free.
Learn to appreciate every word in the bible, it is truth to us, it is our measuring stick to live by.
It cuts, it heals, it reveals, and it teaches. And so much more.
Learn to love your bible. Spend quality time in it, you will find that it will bless your life as God speaks to you.
Testimonies are nice sometimes, but you cannot live by how the Lord has dealt with others, you must see how the Lord wants to deal with you.
There is nothing like the testimony of the Lord in His word.
Turn off the TV, don't allow entertainment to be an idol in your life.
Matthew 6:33
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added to you.
Seek Jesus first, then go enjoy the things God has given to us to enjoy in the abundant life, just make sure, Jesus comes first.
Get back to the word of God and learn for yourself what the Lord is saying for our time and place in this life that He has given to us.
