\"\"One of my life missions is to advance the good.\u00a0 The difficulty oftentimes is not understanding what the good is, but the advancing part.<\/p>\n

Here is the bottom line.\u00a0 Just because your good is true, doesn\u2019t mean that you can use any means available to advance your good. <\/strong> The moment your good becomes the slave to the immediate, the practical, the doable, or even the possible, it ceases to be true.<\/p>\n

The main reason I am today, after 38 years, still a deeply passionate follower of Jesus is because I am a truth-seeker.\u00a0 I found Christ on a search for truth, I\u2019ve been a truth-seeker from that time to this, and I still believe that any honest, open seeker of truth will end up at Jesus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The problem is, an awfully lot of people who say they believe the same thing use any means possible to advance the good this truth can produce.\u00a0 So as a result, we end up with abortion doctors being murdered by so-called Christians, church splits, sexual scandals, money laundering, and on and on the list can go.<\/p>\n

No matter how frustrated you are that the truth is being lost in our current dialogue, remember this.\u00a0 There is only one defender of truth; and that is God.\u00a0 He doesn\u2019t need your tactics to make up for something that is deficient in the truth.<\/strong> Remember Jesus did say, \u201cYou shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free.\u201d\u00a0 The truth will ultimately win out, not only in the apocalypse at the end of the world, but today, tomorrow, next week, and ten years from now.\u00a0 Just make sure that your good is true, and your true is good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
