But he [Jesus] said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV Read full chapter

“For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the Jews on behalf of God’s truth, so that the promises made to the patriarchs might be confirmed and, moreover, that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy.” Romans 15:8 NIV (emphasis mine)
Study Bible Notes: “Paul points out that Christ came first as a servant to His own people (Matt. 15:24). Paul may have done that to humble the haughty Gentiles in the Roman church.” (David Jeremiah)

Condoning sin never helped a single sinner find healing. In fact, speaking truth is how we engage in spiritual warfare. It is how we fight the enemy. Standing for the truth isn’t always easy. Backing down from it only strengthens Satan’s grip on those in darkness.
Leading sinners to Christ is our mission, but isn’t standing up for truth also our mission? The truth, found in God’s Word, isn’t popular today. But only truth will set the captive free.
I have little optimism that the world will embrace Christian values as it once did. In fact, things look more and more like the days of Noah. Only revival can change the trajectory we’re on.
“We are living in a time, in an era when there are people who are desperately wicked, and in desperate need of repentance and faith, in desperate need of the Gospel. And we’re being told that the wickedness is, in fact, the Gospel,” … such a worldview is destructive because it not only calls good evil and evil good, but also “alienates people from the only hope that they have.”

Jesus prayed to His Father, saying, “Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth” NIV (John 17:17).
So yes! We can know what is true because the truth is found in God’s Word. We must love the truth more than we love what we want to be true.
To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32 NIV Read full chapter
You can make a case for almost anything you want to be true. People do it all the time by taking verses out of context. If you are seeking truth, you won’t do that. Ask yourself, What is my motivation? Is it to prove my opinion is right, or to seek the truth?
The Bible is clear about what constitutes sin. We don’t have to wonder about it. God does this to keep us safe from the consequences of sin. Stop and think for a moment about the consequences of sexual perversion, adultery, transgender ideology, and abortion. There is nothing good to be found.
To stand in evil times, we must love truth. We can’t stand against evil if we compromise.
“Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist …”
Condoning sin never helped a single sinner find healing. Speak truth in love.

“It is better to be divided by truth than to be united in error. It is better to speak the truth that hurts and then heals, than falsehood that comforts and then kills. Let me tell you something, friend, it is not love and it is not friendship if we fail to declare the whole counsel of God. It is better to be hated for telling the truth, than to be loved for telling a lie. It is impossible to find anyone in the Bible who was a power for God who did not have enemies and was not hated. It’s better to stand alone with the truth, than to be wrong with a multitude. It is better to ultimately succeed with the truth than to temporarily succeed with a lie. There is only one Gospel and Paul said, ‘If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”
– Adrian Rogers (cited in The Berean Call, December 1996)

“For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 NIV Read full chapter

(Satan) is amazingly effective at making lies believable … the only hope we have of being able to spot his lies is to be intimately familiar with the truth. We must be so well versed in the truth, so faithful to the truth, and such a doer of truth that he will not be able to deceive us with his lies. Apart from the Word of God, we are sitting ducks!”

“When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, “Surely he was the Son of God!” Matthew 27:54 NIV (emphasis mine)
My thoughts: Can you imagine? They were terrified because they realized what they had done: crucified the Son of God!
