For here we are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead...
Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826, American President (3rd))
Matt 7:7-8
"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. NASU
It is a tragic fact in the world that we live that some do not seek the truth, they make their own. They do not bother to seek; as a matter of fact they will choose to reject the truth, to remain safely in what they believe. If you are one of those that have questions, you are one of the chosen ones, God called, to seek out the truth, even as the wise men did two thousand years ago.
The magi proclaimed we have seen “His” Star in the East, and we have come to worship Him. It means that they were looking, they desired something else and they were seeking for something greater. Herod, the king sent them on a mission to find Him, not to worship Him, but to destroy Him. To the extreme that he would kill many children, to ensure that He was safe in His own truth.
To some degree that still happens today. I am still amazed daily at the hatred that the world has for our belief in Christ. They tolerate other religions, yet they actively seek to kill the Church. Why? Because it is real, it is powerful, and it still changes and draws the hearts of men to seek the truth, there is no other name as powerful, as the Name of Jesus…God Bless.
