STAND for the Truth

"You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free." John 8:32

Standing for the Truth. With all the false news out there today, standing for the Truth is more vital than ever. 

Standing for the truth as believers in Jesus Christ is super important. 

When we stand for the truth, we automatically become enemies of those who hate the truth. In Galatians 4, Paul was correcting the church's doctrine and beliefs, and they were not happy about it. Paul asks, "Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?" Galatians 4:16. 

A well-known passage of the Bible is Ephesians 6, which talks about the armor of God. "Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil." Ephesians 6:11. Ephesians 6:14 says, "Stand therefore, having your waist girded with truth..." One of the pieces of the Armor of God is having your waist girded with truth. 

1 Samuel 12:24 says, "Fear the LORD; serve Him in truth with all your heart, and consider what great things He has done for you." We are called to serve God in truth with all our heart. I believe that this includes standing for the truth. 

We cannot be silent. God calls us to stand for the Truth. We must stand for the Truth.
