I can't quite recall if I wrote this or saw it somewhere (credit goes to the original writer);well here it is, "Be so familiar with the Truth that lies are easily detected. Handle the truth so well so you can easily spot out errors".
Now it's "the Truth" not my truth or your truth or our truth, neither is it their truth.
A whole lot of folks just adopt words from the media and make it their mantra. You see something seemingly moral and you're like, that sounds good, I'm going to adopt that. Like the popular one that says "heaven helps those who help themselves". Now this isn't scriptures but balderdash.
In, Acts 17:11; the bearean believers, after every message went to confirm if those things they heard was true from the scriptures. We should do the same.
Dear believer, there's no short cut to this, we ought to give earnest heed to what we've heard and hold fast (Hebrews 2:1). There is no other way we're going to live above this swamp of lies that seems to be everywhere and social media scriptures isn't going to cut it. We have to go back to the BIBLE. Study to know the scriptures and to show yourself approved (2 Timothy 2:15). This is the only way we can know the Truth of the gospel of Christ.
Now here's a reminder from our Lord Jesus Christ,
John 8:32- And Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
The truth is often confused with motivational speaking nowadays🤦🏼. I guess that is why Apostle paul urges us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. A person who is spiritual descerning know that which is from the Spirit and that which is not! As your rightly said it is THE TRUTH. I hope everyone can learn to understand this fact then Christianity would be more effective.
This is a great write up @apphiahacer 👌👌. So educative
