Truth or Popularity?

. . .let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands before you healthy. This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, that has become the cornerstone. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved.”

(Acts 4:10-12)

Peter and John did not worry about the politics of the day. All the leaders of the Hebrews were coming to arrest them . . . the priests, the Sadducees, the captain of the temple . . . yet they contiued to declare the truths about Jesus Christ! Now, present before the entire Sanhedrin, Peter spoke boldly and directly to them! There was no hint of political correctness at all.

Truth or popularity . . . what do we seek in life? In times when public figures seek the popular vote and water down genuine faith, what will we do? Do we crumble and fold or become even bolder in our stand for the savior?

There is no other option. There is no other choice. There is one answer. There is one TRUTH.

It is JESUS! Say it . . . LIVE it!
