English Christian Song | "Those Who Love the Truth Will Gain the Truth"

November 20, 2024

I

God's salvation of mankind is a salvation of those who love the truth, a salvation of the part of them with will and resolve, and the part of them that yearns for truth and justice in their hearts. A person's resolve is the part of them in their heart that yearns for justice, goodness, and truth, and is possessed of conscience. God saves this part of people, and through it, He changes their corrupt disposition, so that they may understand and gain the truth, so that their corruption may be cleansed, and their life disposition may be transformed.

II

If, within you, there is no love for the truth or aspiration for justice and light; if, whenever you encounter evil things, you have neither the will to cast them off nor the resolve to suffer hardship; if, moreover, your conscience is numb; if your faculty for receiving truth is also benumbed, and you are not perceptive of the truth or of events that arise; and if you are undiscerning in all matters, and in the face of whatever befalls you, you cannot seek the truth to resolve problems, then there is no way for you to be saved. Only those who can seek the truth to solve problems are people with stature, and only they can stand firm in testimony.

III

When you encounter problems and difficulties, you must face them with a cool head, and react to them in the right way, and you must make a choice. You should learn to use the truth to solve problems. Why is it said that Peter is a fruit? Because there are things of worth in him, and there are things worth perfecting. He sought the truth in all things, had resolve, and was firm of will; he had reason and was willing to suffer hardship; he loved the truth in his heart, did not let go of what came to pass, and was able to learn lessons from all things. These are all strong points.
