John 8:31-33 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
It seems that we are at war on every front in this nation.
We have the health care war, we have the border war. We have the inflation war. We have the war with the environmentalist, or the green deal squad.
We have the war with the liberal left, that wants to defund the police, and disarm the citizens. We have the war to protect the family, and keep our children away from the government and their attempts to indoctrinate, twist and deceive and confuse our children till they don't know if they’re a boy or a girl, or a dog or a cat.
Please don’t get mad at me, I'm just saying all this to clarify and verify the gravity of the times we're in.
But here is what I believe... if you boil it all down I believe you will discover that even though there truly is a war on many fronts, there is one central core of the matter.
So how do we know when something is the core or the heart of the matter? Very simple, if you fix that something, and everything else clears up. Then you know you have hit the heart of the matter.
The heart of the matter of all of our battles today is one thing.
Let me say it this way... the heart of the matter is the truth of the matter.
Every war on every front goes back to the heart of the matter. And the heart of the matter is the truth of the matter.
What am I saying? I am saying that the real battle is the war on truth.
Let me put it in perspective. If the truth in every situation, and on every battle front were revealed, the war would be over almost immediately.
Why?
Because truth corrects.
Truth dismantles deception.
Truth delivers.
Truth heals.
Truth cuts the power cord to lies.
This is the battle we're in, in America; it's the fight for truth.
This is why the media has become a propaganda machine that only carries the narrative of the left, and completely ignores any other viewpoint, and ridicules every opposing view.
I'm telling you that there is an element in our country, and our society that cannot tell the truth, and sadly the media is complicit and supports their lies and deception.
Jeremiah 9:5 said … And they will deceive everyone his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.
Isaiah 59:4 said … None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
Why is the left so afraid of Trump? It's not because he's so smart or so rich. It's because he represents the truth.
This particular element, or people of the same mindset that I have been speaking of … are really fighting freedom of speech, because when there is really freedom of speach, the truth will be told, and the truth will be heard, and these people know that the truth will destroy their narrative, and they will lose their power, and they will no longer be able to manipulate, and control people through fear.
Sadly it has become a very rare thing today in Washington D.C. to find someone who tells the truth.
When someone does dare to tell the truth about anything, they immediately turn on them like a den of lions, to destroy them. To assassinate their character, and to demoralize them.
Why do they do this? Because the liars know, that truth is Kryptonite to them, and it will destroy their house of lies.
I think its amazing that Jesus said to his disciples... Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
We think we are free because people fought and bled and died to purchase our freedom. And we think that we're free because of a piece of paper called the constitution and the bill of rights, and the declaration of independence. And surely all of these are extremely important to us. But they are not what made us free or what keeps us free.
Then you may ask, what is it that keeps us free? It is the truth that makes us free, and keeps us free.
Have you ever really listened to the words of the battle hymn of the republic? It goes like this …
