Thy word is truth


The world hides from God, and God's word the Bible is truth. If the world acknowledged God and His word a lot of hatred and confusion would go away. They would understand that God created everything with Jesus, his son who is the Living Word.  They would obey his word by receiving Jesus as their savior from sins punishment. They would receive eternal life and they would love God with all their heart and their neighbors as themselves. That is the good news that most hide from.

John 17:14  I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 
John 17:15  I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 
John 17:16  They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 
John 17:17  Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 

My words are awkward, so listen closely. So, we can expect the world's people to hate us if they see that we are Christians?  Is that why so many hide their faith?  Do we fear people more than God? Lots of questions for you and for me. The truth is, that the world needs Jesus. Lord you have sanctified us, made us your people for your service. Holy God draw the lost souls to you and receive them. May we be used for this purpose, in Jesus name, amen.
