Truth
In his notes on the State of Virginia, Thomas Jefferson wrote. "It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself."
We live in an age in which men often agree with Pontius Pilate. He asked the question of Jesus, what is truth? This attempt to excuse ourselves from accountability is very predictable and easily dismissed. Our need of a savior drives us to the truth. Jesus is the truth. We have need of truth for the very salvation of our souls.
Jesus said:
John 3:19-21
19 "This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. 20 " For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21 "But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."
NASU
May our Lord Jesus Christ be merciful to us and our nation. May He awaken the souls of men and women of the United States of America to our compelling need of His saving grace. May we know the Truth and may He make us free.
Ex 34:10
10 And He said: "Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord. For it is an awesome thing that I will do with you.
