The Whole Truth.

"As he spake these words, many believed on him. Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, IF YE CONTINUE IN MY WORD, then are ye my disciples indeed; And YE SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH, and the truth shall make you free." (Joh 8:30-32) ...
"For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION." (Rom 10:10)

# Believing --> Righteousness.

Many that believe in the words of Jesus Christ, are NOT His disciples, therefore, they lack the power of the gospel of Christ unto eternal life, even thou they are saved. [Note: This could sound controversial to your ears, I' am only interpreting these words of Jesus]. There is a big power gap between those that only believe (the Believers) and those that believe and continue therein (the Disciples). 

# What or Who is "the Truth"?

To know "the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth", YOU MUST BE A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST. Jesus said to those that believed on Him, that even thou they are saved in their hearts for receiving Him, His Words, and the Father that sent Him, they still need to be delivered by their knowing/knowledge of the whole Truth about God, the Father, Christ Himself, the Word, the Light, the Holy Spirit, and the Voice. For They are all together One and the Truth. 

It's until you know the Truth, before your experience the demonstration of the supernatural power of God in your life. When the HIDDEN SECRETs or the Truth to any matter or issue (from the Great Creator to His creations) is laid open before us, THEN and only then are we delivered by the power of the Word/Truth made known unto us. 

# Confession --> Salvation (Deliverance)!

After knowing the Truth, it now becomes our confession, and here lies the end to all struggles and shame. "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION (Deliverance)." (Rom 10:10) 

The truth we now know should then frame our thoughts, words, actions and expectations throughout our lifetime, otherwise, the struggling continues. There is the Power or Sword of the Holy Spirit behind every single Truth of God given to us, and WHENEVER YOU ACCEPT THE WORD, YOU HAVE ACCEPTED THE SPIRIT OF IT.

God gives specific words (rhema) at specific times to us, and as we heed to the Voice behind the words, we receive the Spirit and the power of it. And so we confess the Truth in our worship, prayers, thanksgiving songs and praises of God.

# Power today.

ONLY to His disciples did the Risen Christ did say to wait till they receive power of the Holy Spirit. "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." (Acts 1:8)

This power-display is purely for witnessing (the prove and demonstration of God glorifying all of His children). It's an open display of God's love, victory, etc reigning in and over His children/disciples. This is God's law of attraction and of liberty: We live the Life of God before the whole wide world! We are not subject to the natural laws but that of the Spirit.

Are you a disciple of Christ or just a believer?
