Part Two

Sharing Truth with a World of Relativity

It is no secret that Christianity will not make sense to people who have been conditioned to believe that there is absolute truth. Yet, what they will tell you is that they want to know what truth is. The issue is not what is true for you but what is true about God. When we have identified the people in our lives that we want to share with we can reveal the truths of God as they relate to our lives. Once again it is not true because of us but because of how God works in our lives. For example, you might say that God has healed you of an ailment and therefore you share that He will heal your friend. That is not how God works. He heals because he is a healer. The truth "nugget" is about His character not your circumstances. Moreover, the bible is not true because it has been true for us but because God is truthful and cannot lie. It is all about HIM!

Look at Philippians 2:12-17. We see a very clear aspect of how God works in people's lives as it relates to our calling as believers. His work happens as we "walk" with Him and follow his directives to "hold out the word of life" to those around us. We end up being the vehicles that God uses to transform lives. We become tools or instruments used for His glory to spread the gospel so the only thing we need to worry about is "who will be the next person to hear the message"? God is the only one responsible to change someone's heart.
