"Knowing Truth"

Hello Readers,

A while has passed since we’ve shown up in here with something to say. There’s good reason for this, be assured. There’s been major transition occurring for several years now in our understanding of so many things. Needless to say perhaps, yet it’s often hard to admit when we are incorrect and have fallen prey to various deceptions. But to live 58 years on this earth, grow up in Christianity, and still find out so many things that we perceived to be correct simply were not, can take some time to process.

With this said, may we add that this does not mean that every detail is perfect and understood in a position taken that we hold all the answers. However, it does suffice to say that we are certainly on a course for knowing His Truth. It is this Truth that makes one free. You too, believer, will be on course to pursue His Truth for the rest of your life if you really know Him. (ref. John 8:31,32)

David has asked me many times to consider writing on the blog again. Lately, it seems that maybe this could be possible sometimes. You see there were so many things going on in my own understanding and walk with the LORD that needed correction. Just the swelling ego that I would experience after writing what I would think was a “good piece of work,” is something I’ve learned had to be dealt with in a serious manner. People can be so full of themselves and be totally clueless. This was me. After studying what was supposed to be courses of Bible doctrine and men who knew how to teach them, for so many years, it has been necessary to undergo a huge unlearning process. This is difficult in many respects. Surely it would have been better to have never learned bad doctrine, but, this is where we are and these things have their purpose in our present walk with the LORD.(ref. Rom. 8:28)

The pursuit of Truth can cost you relationships with people you love. Friends, family, and acquaintances may write you off as a “dissatisfied nut.” But if you want to know Truth, and when you do know Truth and you take a stand for It, this is to be expected. (ref. John 15:20)
In the coming days, if the LORD permits, we may return to post sometimes with a few words to share some encouragement.

P.S. Any references to Scripture that have been made will always need to be read in the context in which they are contained for proper interpretation.

In Christ,
Julie
