A Christian speaks truth

[Marko Loimaan-Aho]

I have learned that a Christian has to speak truth.
"Speak truth, whole truth, nothing but truth".
Nowadays people are saying, that it is necessary to lie, and it is not polite to tell the truth. And "there is not one truth".

Yes, there is. Always.

Psalms 5:6
Proverbs 6:16-19

Now, I tell you what happened to me last week. My neighbor got cerebral hemorrhage few months ago. Now he is something like vegetable, but alive.
I saw his wife on the road, there was also other neighbors present.
Of course I told his wife, that this kind of things are consequences of sin. If you live with sin, God punishes. They have done many kind of sins, for example birth control (I have seen that woman buying condoms).

Deuteronomy 32:39
Psalms 38: 1-9

Then I also told her that God did not kill her husband, but left him living as a vegetable, because God did not want to punish her husbands brother, who is a servant of the Lord and good Christian. Our neighbors have no children (because they have made the sin of birth control) - so that good brother of course is forced to marry his brother's widow, if his brother dies.

Deuteronomy 25:5

Now - for some reason - people in my village are very angry to me. Because I am a Christian and speak nothing but truth, I am now persecuted.
But - I do not know, what I could have done differently.

Re: A Christian speaks truth

Amen, Brother Marko. We Christians face unjust persecution at every corner. Here during my mission to Godless South America I a, persecuted by lazy, dirty Indians (and yes, I also am honest and sincere towards them).

I can only offer you consolation found in the words of our sweet Himself:

Matthew 5:10-12
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Praise !

Re: A Christian speaks truth

Well done, Marko dear. Sister Basilissa has already offered you the very finest consolation there is, the sweet and nourishing words of our Beloved Savior.

But - I do not know, what I could have done differently.

Well, at the time of the conversation in the street, you did what was right and proper and your Godless neighbors should respect that. But I hope this has made you think about what you should have done long before the husband turned into a cabbage.

If you had only done your duty (like a True Christian™) and firmly persuaded him and his floozy of a wife see the error or their ways, then this whole sorry business could have been avoided. They would have children, and God would either have allowed the husband to remain alive and healthy or would have killed him outright, according to His Holy Will. Either way, the man would not now be a drooling idiot, kept alive by socialist medicine at the taxpayers' expense.

We can all learn a lesson here, so thank you for reminding us.

1 Corinthians 10:11
Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

Thank you for your words, Sister Basilissa and Mrs. Attila. You truly are women who have Jesus inside them!

I now understand also my mistake. I must admit that I sometimes am like Moses describes himself, not a man of words.

Exodus 4:10

But that is no reason for me not to do my duty.

Gal 6:1

Jesus Christ gives us the right words.

Proverbs 27:17

And if a man can not speak well, there must always be some acts you can do? Few years ago we had a "baby boom" in neighbor village. Reason was a Christian man who was working at a gas station. In quiet times he had done GOD's work: he had a sharp injection needle and he had stuck it through the condom foil packets before selling those items.

Of course some sinners made abortions (and killed their souls) but many sperm cells also found their final destination.
