Truth Or
Tolerance?
A wise, Pastor man that I do
know
Said,
Sadly, in this world
In which we do
live....
"Truth is Out and
Tolerance is In"
I
perceived...
Being without truth in Salvation
Is Being tolerant in Sin
Seems to be...This is
reality
People seem to avoid the
truth
And are not apt to react
honestly
and share the gospel, as a
testimony
To set someone
free
What do we do, when we
see
This happening physically
?
Someone falling, tripping,
rapidly?
If you can...
And are able to
withstand
You would hold out your
hand
To break that
fall
Whether or not they would
call
This is a truth one would never
deny
For being able,
Gives you reason to
try
Well, as it is
spiritually
Would you let that person
be
Bound for
eternity
Unable to be
free?
If they were falling
And you could
see
Without Christ,
They would be lost for
eternity?
Truth or
Tolerance
Should we not boldly speak
truth in his love?
Or is this personally, unheard
of?
Should we coldly let
Tolerance
Become a
hindrance
That could lose a
soul forever
With no
confidence
And that the communication,
would be severed?....
Who dares to
care
To share, the truth of the
gospel
To tell, someone
That we all fall short of the
glory of God
But by Christ,
He has made it
right
God has made a way, and
when we
pray...
He has allowed us to receive a
revelation
For our eternal Salvation
Are we really, in truth
afraid
To offer incorruptible
aid...
When knowing Christ paid the
cost
and knowing He took the
loss....
At Pentecost?
Or do we just look the other
way
Not even offering to
pray
Not speaking up to
say
That Jesus is the only
way.....
Tolerating, sinful
behavior
And yet we know, Christ as our
Savior?
Something is wrong in this
situation
And leads to
frustration
When truth is
known
But has not been
shown
Truth needs to be spoken in
love
For God's love,
Sets us all
free
To be bold, and not
cowardly
Tolerance....
Being reluctant,
inconsistant
to speak a word in due
season
Is treason
And denies Christs birth and
death
For that very
reason....
Truth to set someone
free
Or Tolerance, that lost
chance
In reluctance....
The
consequence...
That will leave a soul
lost for eternity
What should it really
be?
What does God expect of you and
me?
Truth or
Tolerance?

Isaiah
59:4
None calleth for justice,
nor any pleadeth for truth:
they trust in vanity,
and speak lies;
they conceive mischief,
and bring forth iniquity.
Zechariah 8:16
These are the things
that ye shall do; Speak
ye
every man the
truth
to his neighbour;
execute
the judgment of truth
and peace in your gates:
I Timothy
6:3-5
If any man teach otherwise,
and consent not to
wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to
the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but
doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife,
railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and
destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw
thyself.
John
8:32
And ye shall
know
the truth, and
the
truth shall
make you free.
Father, In your Love,
you
speak to us, and remind us
to
be a light that shines...
To
speak the gospel, of truth
to
one another. I cannot judge
anyone in this. Nor am I called to
Judge.. Because Lord,
I
fail, and I fail miserably
sometimes, in not speaking up.
In
not speaking truth....
because it is easier, to tolerate someone. But what a
diservice
we
are doing, by not speaking truth
to
one another. I suppose, we
do
not want to judge one another,
as
you say....I don't want to hit someone upside the head with the law of your Holy
Bible. I want to extend grace.
Yet, if we could
learn to do it in love, I know
you
would show us a way. If
we
would ask you, for wisdom
in
this matter, you would
give it liberally....
We
need to pray about this.
And
we need to ask you
for
the boldness, and the courage.
I
know I do, anyway.
I
sometimes, use the excuse,
I
am shy....
But
I ask, for a way...
to
bring you glory, and to
deliver a soul, whether,
friend, enemy, or acquaintance.
I
don't have to be religous.
All
I have to do, is really
give glory to you. Never to be ashamed...
For
you are my Father....
and
there is none like you.
You
set me free,
you
searched for me
and you found me....
Broken, and now,
I
am healed...
Maybe, if I can express
that wonderful truth to
make a difference,
and
speak real truth,
and
real love, you will cover
a
multitude of sins.
By
the blood shed on the cross
But, you will not tolerate them.
In
Jesus name,
Show us the way.
Amen
Revelation
12:11
And they
overcame him
by the blood
of the Lamb,
and by the
word of their
testimony; and
they
loved not
their lives
unto the
death.
