The impact of truth in a drifting world
Advertising claims that life is beautiful. However, it is clear that reality rather gives the image of a world constantly adrift, obsessed with the search for the latest novelty that will bring satisfaction. However, in this frantic race, the believer holds the secret which allows life to actually be “beautiful”.
In God's revelation he possesses the truth, the very existence of which the world rejects. This truth has multiple facets that affect all areas of life here and eternity hereafter. This truth of God rests in the Gospel, which itself centers on Jesus Christ, the object of the original promise.
How then can we explain the fact that many Christians live lives that are not “beautiful”? Have they forgotten the truth? Would they have stopped thinking about it or even believing in it? In the current general atmosphere, this is not surprising. But that's a shame, because the truth as it is in Jesus Christ has the power to transform lives.
The gospel has both content and power. While it is more than just an intellectual exercise, it is nonetheless rooted in what God has said – the truth. And it has the power to penetrate the whole life of those who pay attention to it.
With simplicity, the author examines what truth is and how it affects concrete life in a world that has lost its moorings.
