Reality vs Self Delusion - Aaron Ireland

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." John 8:31-32 When the knowledge of truth is lacking, enslavement will ensure. We perceive truth in proportion to the degree of honesty in our lives. The tension is best described by Paul, the apostle: "..then shall I know even as also I am known." 1 Corinthians 13:12b "..evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived." 2 Timothy 3:13 Shall we heed God's call to cast aside fear, and allow transparency in our lives, or shall we withhold from ourselves the liberty that comes from knowing the reality that shall make us free, by hiding the truth from others? Herein is a key to distinguishing the genuine from the counterfeit. This episode unveils the personal ramifications of dishonesty, along with the liberty that is born of transparency.
