Biblical Truth is Beautiful

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!" (Isaiah 52:7)

For some reason there is a lot of resistance against the sharing of biblical truth. In fact there seem to be a general distaste toward speaking about Yeshua and using the Bible as a point of reference outside of believers' circles.

The reason we are given for this is that it is wrong to influence people to change their beliefs.

But why is that, especially when those who are most reactive toward the sharing of biblical truth are, at the same time, so open to other kinds of influence? Western society today is built on an aggressive commercialism that is designed to manipulate people into spending enormous sums of money in order to purchase all sorts of products. Why is it that we put up with millions of dollars worth of advertising for things such as dark colored, over-sugared, fizzy drinks that are essentially bad for us, or we don't mind companies splashing their logos on our shoes and shirts, to encourage others to purchase their products.

Most people have no problems with the great many philosophies – many of the them quite evil - being fed to us through television and other media. Yet we have been shamed into keeping any biblical truth to ourselves.

We need to get God's perspective on this: "How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news..."

Sharing biblical truth is beautiful. It's what we all need to hear. There is nothing shameful about speaking about the true God and his ways. Not only does biblical faith and truth lead to eternal salvation, it gives us all we need to live a good life.

Let's not forget that we are in a spiritual battle for the lives of people everywhere. The pressure to keep silent is a devilish tactic designed to intimidate us and keep people in darkness.

The only way to deal with this pressure is to not give into it. It's time to proclaim the Truth.
