17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
KJV
What is it that separates people? Most often it is truth and the truth of the Word of God. Jesus stated “They are not of the world.” Why? They had believed the truth, they believed what Jesus had told them, they had turned from the world and sin, received Jesus not only as the Messiah but the Lamb of God that would and could take away their sin when they placed faith and trust in Him and Him alone. That is still the truth that separates people today. I was speaking to an individual earlier this week and when asked if I were concerned about what is going on with the war America entered into, with the divide on our nation and several other things I stated “No, because I know Jesus as my savior and I know He is in control of all things including my life.” As I began to share the gospel he stated that he had “Found faith in his own way and that was good enough.” What began to separate us was the truth of the Word of God. No one is saved because they deserve to be, no one is saved because they found faith in their own way, no one is saved because they work and labor to be good, no one can be saved when they turn from the truth. (John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. ; Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.) That is truth and when we trust in Jesus it does began to separate from all of those who choose to deny truth. What side of truth are you standing on today?
