真理屹立不移

經文: 「口吐真言,永遠堅立;舌說謊言,只存片時。」(箴言十二:19)

時間考驗真理,而真理像真金,不怕火燒,經得住時間的考驗;因此,我若因說真話而受苦,我必須心平氣和地等待真相大白。我若真心相信上帝,並竭力地宣揚此真理,我也必會遇到許多磨難,但我不用害怕,最終真理必得勝。

「舌說謊言,只存片時。」假象雖能暫時迷惑人心,但那結果不過如花,稍縱即逝,多麼可悲;它越快發旺,也越快凋謝。反之,不朽的真理,卻永不改變;古老的福音,建立在永生上帝的磐石上,歷久彌新,越陳越香。有句格言「那說真話的使撒但蒙羞。」千真萬確地那傳揚上帝真理的,必使撒但抱愧蒙羞下到地獄;毒蛇的種類雖吐出虛假虺氣,終究必歸於滅亡。

信徒啊,無論大小事,保守你的心在真理這一邊,尤其要站在上帝這邊,祂必施恩給你。


Truth Established

Scripture: "The lip of Truth shall be established for ever; but a lying tongue is but for a moment"(Proverbs 12:19).

Truth wears well. Time tests it, but it right well endures the trial. If then, I have spoken the truth and have for the present to suffer for it, I must be content to wait. If also I believe the truth of God and endeavor to declare it, I may meet with much opposition, but I need not fear, for ultimately the truth must prevail.
What a poor thing is the temporary triumph of falsehood! "A lying lip is but for a moment!" It is a mere gourd which comes up in a night and perishes in a night; and the greater its development the more manifest its decay. On the other hand, how worthy of an immortal being is the avowal and defense of that truth which can never change; the everlasting gospel, which is established in the immutable truth of an unchanging God! An old proverb saith, "He that speaks truth shames the devil." Assuredly he that speaks the truth of God will put to shame all the devils in hell and confound all the seed of the serpent which now hiss out their falsehoods.
O my heart, take care that thou be in all things on the side of truth, both in small things and great; but specially, on the side of Him by whom grace and truth have come among men!
