Tell Them

March 13

The Word of Truth within us emboldens us to speak fearlessly before the enemies of the Gospel. Certainly, through the generations since Christ and until this day, there are people who have been and are being tortured and slain for daring to proclaim these words that are set before you today.

The reality is that those steeped in the enemy’s deception are relatively complacent about other doctrines of devils; however, when confronted with TRUTH, when face-to-face with Christ who is TRUTH, they become incensed—or they become born again. The TRUTH has a powerful impact upon the hearer.

As Paul says in Hebrews 4:13, “The WORD of God is swift and powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the very soul and marrow of a man’s spirit. It is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of his heart.” The Living Word, Jesus, through His Holy Word, the Bible, brings everyone who hears to a point of decision—each of us will hear and be transformed to godliness or to hatred for God.

Why does Jesus then delay His return, when each man’s heart is an open book before Him? Peter, the impetuous one whose actions and words at times could have condemned him were not the Lord patient said, “Jesus is not slack concerning His promise to return; rather, He is waiting patiently, giving even the most hardened souls chance after chance to come to repentance” II Peter 3:9. Let us tell them!
