Greetings and blessings to all of you. We live in dark times however there is the light that is in the world which is in you and I; the Holy Spirit. “I am the light of the world He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life.” (John 8:12) and He has said, “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lampstand and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” (John 14-16) And finally to us Christians the Word says, “Do all things without complaining and disputing that you may become blameless and harmless children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world.” (Phil. 2:15)
Since we are “the light of the world” we should be passionate about the sharing the Truth to individuals who have been fed lies about how we and others should live with the life God gave us. But some of us are not. Why? Here are a few reasons…we say ..Let someone else do it. I’m not an evangelist or I do not have time. I am busy with my own personal stuff. "Or saying truths to my love ones may negatively affect my relationship. So, I had better keep quiet." How can we keep the Love of God to ourselves? When some of the professing Christians hear of the lies, the ignorance, the poor decisions our government is making; when some sitting in church or on Zoom hear of the kids that are being indoctrinated with the evil that is perpetrated from the administrators of our public schools; they keep silent …allowing this evil to go on! Even though many people reject the Truth, the Christian worldview is what brings spiritual freedom. Following the Christian worldview in all areas of life-work, relationships, finances, etc. is what brings real freedom in this life in spite of the individualistic and feelings-based mantra our culture proclaims. In Albert Mohler book “We Cannot Be Silent,” he argues that speaking The Truth is often the compassionate thing to do. The Truth drowns out all the lies on all the “fake news” you hear. I once thought that I could not make a difference in someone’s life until they came to me like a ‘Nicodemus’ to thank me for speaking on an issue that was troubling him. I believe all of us can be “that difference” to someone. It’s risky….but it’s worth it!
