--It makes no difference, say they, what a man believes, if he is only
sincere.
--But it seems quite evident if we take the Scriptures for our guide in the matter, that men may be left really and sincerely to believe a lie
and that, as a consequence, they may be damned "who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2 Thess. 2:12.
All admit that we must worship God in spirit, in order to our acceptance; but it is no less required of us that we should worship Him in truth.
And as God's requirements are just, we may, notwithstanding all the jargon of sectarianism, attain to a knowledge of the truth.
Very important, then, and interesting is the inquiry.
Q: What is truth?
A: As Jesus came into the world to bear witness unto the truth, we will hear His testimony on the point.
In His prayer to His Father in behalf of His disciples, He prays, "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth." John xvii, 17. The word of God is truth; and nothing He has ever uttered through the agency of prophets or apostles can have a higher claim to be called his word than the Ten Words which He spake from Sinai." R.F.C.
