Truth always remain as it is: Truth

"I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Him. No turning back, no turning back"

Always a joy to see Christians take that step in baptism, was so glad to go to the baptism service yesterday. I always remembered the day of my baptism, singing that very same song.

"The cross before me, the world behind me. No turning back, no turning back"

Now I want to share on my thought on truth. I remembered yann howe telling me once that you can find all the truths of Christianity in the children's songs sung in Church. I thought that was quite rightly said.
One song that has been more memorable and remembered by me was 'Calvary's blood' Somehow the words spoke to me during that period of time during the Children's camp then.
Lyrics:
I carried a burden, a staggering weight
And struggled for freedom but could not escape
I trembled and cried at the thought of my fate
What must I do to be saved?

I desp’rately searched for release from my pain
But found that man’s wisdom was useless and vain
Is there not a pow’r that can break ev’ry chain?
What must I do to be saved?

Chorus:
Jesus’ blood flows from Calvary
Breaking Satan’s pow’r,
Setting captives free
Greatest gift of the greatest love
Heaven paid the price with Calvary’s blood
Heaven paid the price with Calvary’s blood

I saw Jesus bleeding, the cross bore His stain
The men standing by were all mocking His pain
But then yes, I heard it, He called out my name
“Kneel at the cross and be saved”.

I fell at the feet of the one hanging there
“Oh Savior, forgive me”, I cried in despair
My burden fell off Jesus answered my prayer
Kneel at the cross and be saved.

Actually I think the gospel message is indeed a very simple message. The problem I believe is innocence, the degree of exposure to the filthiness of the world. To bring this on to an analogy- imagine the truths found in the bible to be a key, and the heart being the keyhole, if the keyhole is dirty, filled with dirt, how can the key be fitted in to open up the heart?

Therefore, know the truth, accept the truth and apply the truth now. Only then can you live that victorious Christian life.
