Opinion: Living With the Truth (2), By Femi Aribisala
It is the Truth that reveals to a man who he is. Some people think they are white and some think they are black. But when they meet the Truth, they discover they are neither. Some think they are tall: some think they are short. Some think they are handsome: some think they are not. But none of this has anything to do with who or what they are.
Because we don’t know who we are, we are susceptible to lies. You do a job and are paid 500,000 naira a month. Is that really how much you are worth? Do you even know how much you are worth? Hear and understand. Even if they were to pay you a million naira, they would still be paying you peanuts. You are worth so much more. It is the Truth that reveals the true value of a man. He reveals that our worth is determined by the cost of our redemption. We must be very valuable indeed because Jesus died for us. He ransomed us with His own life.
“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.”
