He dwells in reality and truth


John 1:14, “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”

1 Cor. 5:8, “…the unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.”

Today, 10/16/09, the Lord told me, “I dwell in reality and sincerity.” I see reality as absolute and undeniable truth. The root of the Greek word for sincerity in the above verse, 1 Cor. 5:8, can mean ” ‘to separate,’ hence, ‘to be of opinion’, approve, esteem”. Truth is the decision and determining factor. He is truth and truth stands alone. Things that are not true do not stand with truth because they are not genuine. That is why when the foundation of a house cracks or falls it is because it was not established on something immovable. Truth is immovable.

Our identity is hid in Him, Col. 3:3. Our identity is only in the truth. Otherwise, what kind of identity would it be? It would be a self-imposed identity based on what I think is real. This is not necessarily truth. Truth does not budge an inch because it is truth. Truth does not lie or decieve because it is truth. In truth, there is all liberty from all things that are not true. Truth does not have to prove itself because it already is.

If my nature is righteous because of His faith in me and His Spirit apprehending me by grace then I am becoming truth in my triune being. Perhaps, you could say I am even becoming more real.
