Do you hear His voice?

Therefore Pilate said to Him, "So You are a king?" Jesus answered, " You say correctly that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice." Pilate said to Him, "What is truth?"
(John 18:37-38)

Do you hear His voice? The voice that came into the world to testify to the truth. The voice that speaks to us today if we would only take the time to listen…to have our hardened hearts softened with the oil of the Holy Spirit who leads us into all truth! The truth bears witness to itself and is revealed to those who diligently seek after it.

We seem to live in a 'Pilate age' where the question of "what is truth" is asked rhetorically and really isn't meant to be answered. Or, might I say, that most do not really want to know what truth is for then one becomes accountable to it! For truth causes us to look at ourselves, it is a measure that casts a plumb line against our own agendas, it provides us with a reflection, as in a mirror, of the status of our own heart's condition.

Truth is the only foundation that one can build upon. Yet, in our age, we ignore the solid foundation and build upon the sand and then we wonder why we are tossed about with every new wind and thought that comes along. How dishonesty, greed, avarice, arrogance, distrust, selfishness seem to be lurking everywhere with greater intensity.

Truth is not relative to the situation as we have been informed so often in our day. The forces of anti-christ supply the winds that drive the sails of relative truth - which is the true agenda of the enemy of our souls; there is no truth...did God really say that?

Deserting the truth while imbibing in relativism esteems the enemy and serves to validate his lies and distortions to the lost masses. It serves to promulgate the tide of deception that historically ebbs and flows through civilization. And in our time the ebb has been steadily building and the flow is coming in like a flood.

We either stand firm in His truth or we stand for nothing or as is our case today - for anything!
