Buy the Truth, and Sell It Not !
Beloved in Christ peace with you all!
It has been a while since I shared my Christian article here. Thanks be to God for the lives and and opportunities granted us all. It's my fervent hope that we shall live without been hurt till we are called to eternity, Amen!
Few message that I would like to share once my fellow Ghanaians are going to cast their vote on Monday, 7th December 2020. We all need to go on our kneels to pray for peaceful election. Since we are one people driving towards common goal that's success and better lives with much development and justices.
One thing that I know the Book of Proverbs written by King Solomon who is ascribed to be the most wisest person in the World, did talked about. And that's is "we should buy the truth but we shouldn't sell it!"
Proverbs 23:23(KJV)
" Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding."
Many are we who are doing exactly the opposite it what King Solomon said here. We are just selling the truth which needs to be kept and kept well. The truth that saves, the truth that seek justices for the sufferers and those who are troubled. Now, many truth have gotten lost from us. This is the common reason that one wants to achieve much wealth and money for him. Most of people now are betrayals to their own brothers, Sisters and friends due to the money they would want to acquire. So does money weighs much than human lives, we ask? I think this is absolutely no this answer! Are lives are more valuable than money and wealth.
Few words would I leave here for my fellow Ghanaians as we go to the poll on Monday. Let's be vigilant of our actions and inactions. Our thoughts of jeopardizing one's life, painting them black due to money which could be exhausted and squandered in a jiffy.
We had been experiencing a high time in such elections before where some Macho men just hook some of innocent people and take away ballot boxes. Some sort of bully lives among other citizenry wouldn't help for smooth, transparent and peaceful election. But we pray that something of these deviants lifestyle wouldn't take place in this election. Harmony is going to prevail. Whoever wins, is God chosen person. Amen & Amen!
@oppongk, CR - Ghana!
Buy the truth, the law of God, all the word of God and do not sell it. Your life depends on it. Your freedom from the bondage of sin depends on knowing and obeying the truth (John 8: 12-36). Your eternal salvation is firmly grounded in the full knowledge of that truth (1 Timothy 2: 2-3).
Nice post you shared with us thanks
