During the days when Jesus Christ walked on this earth, He declared in John 14:6 that He is the way, the truth and the life. To the generation of that time, this sounded like blasphemy and an insult to them since they received not His words with gladness but rather were stumbled and disturbed by the two-edged sword that divides the intents of the heart and soul. The reality of this intriguing subject is that Jesus Christ was indeed and still is the only way to the Father, the God Almighty and that no human can receive His salvation except by believing in Him. Yet in our times, we have come up with ideologies, philosophies and principles that wander away from the truth of Jesus Christ; we’ve built our idolatry perception of what the truth would be likened to. But our God, rich in His mercy, says in 1Timothy 2:4 that, “He wants all men to be saved and to come to knowledge of the truth.” How do we perceive His truth? By knowing His word. How do we know His word? By reading the word of God (Jesus Christ). In Hosea 4:6 God Almighty says “my people perish because of lack of knowledge.” Even the Lord Jesus Christ himself again declares in John 8:32 that: “You shall know the truth and the truth will set you free.” What is truth? Truth being revealed is Jesus Christ setting us free from all bondage and sin—leading us to a path of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Let our pursuit for truth lead us to reach the ultimate acknowledgement of who God is, through His son Jesus Christ. No man goes to the Father except through Him; everything invisible or visible; all that has been created was made through Him, by Him and to Him. Our God rejoices when we set our hearts to know Him; let it be our daily inspiration to know Jesus Christ and Him being crucified. Heaven is waiting for you to take the steps of faith in knowing your Creator. In that path of knowledge will you discover your true purpose of life for in Him we live, move and have our being.
