THE DANGER OF HATING THE TRUTH

The greatest danger is when a person hears the truth and begins to hate it. When light comes, it exposes darkness. And some people, instead of being thankful for the exposure, become angry at it. They don’t want the light because it reveals what they are hiding.

We must understand—God doesn’t bring truth to condemn us. He brings it to save us. But if our heart grows hard, if we begin to despise the voice that warns us, we are in terrible danger.

Paul said people will heap up teachers for themselves who tell them what their itching ears want to hear. That’s what happens when you hate the truth. You no longer want to endure sound teaching, so you go after what makes you feel comfortable.

Do not despise the truth, no matter how much it cuts. Let it cut, so that it can heal. God’s word may be painful, but it is the only medicine that destroys the poison of sin.
May your day be blessed.
