The Truth part 3
In john 17:17 Jesus prayed to the Father for his disciples. He prayed, "Sanctify them by Your truth. Your Word is truth" As we can see here Jesus declares that the word of God (the Bible) is truth.
If we want to be Sanctify then, we must desire the truth, search for the truth, find the truth, embrace the truth, believe the truth, live by the truth, and share the truth. The Word of God, the Holy Bible.
Now the question is; What does it mean to be sanctified? Jesus prayed that His disciples then and now, be sanctify. Sanctify is: to be set apart for a holy use, to declare holy, to consecrate, to purify, to cleanse, to redeem, to vindicate. Wow! all these blessings and much more we can all receive if we only take the word of God as a complete guide for our lives.
I suggest we say as the prophet Jeremiah said in Jeremiah 15: 16, "Your words were found, and I ate them. And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O Lord God of Hosts"
At last I would like to remind you all that the book of Revelation, the last book in the Bible, says that there is a great blessing for those who Read, Hear, and Keep the Words. Revelation 1:3
