Through a believer comes the Truth



Romans 14:8-9
8
But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim:
9
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

This is one of those passages of testimony that can be really misunderstood and lead people astray. It can be clarified by completing the wisdom.

The 'word' is only one thing. It is not holy scripture, it is not biblical passages, it is not sermons, or witness testimonials. The 'word' is only one thing: 'living truth'. What is meant by living truth is, the Spirit of Truth, speaks through a believer by the kingdom. This is generally understood as unspoken wisdom that ears do no hear.

The living truth is brought into being in the form of holiness, like love, kindness, gentleness, goodness, peacefulness, patience, faithfulness, joyfulness, and self control. These fruits are the foundation of spiritual acts. The living word is founded on these action of spiritual holiness. So when the verse says 'the word is near you', that is to say; the building blocks of holiness supply the living word.

To figuratively say 'Jesus is Lord' is to in 'belief' serve the living truth. And to believe it in your heart is to serve with sincerity. For Christ Jesus to ascend, meant he would send down the Spirit of Truth for us. This was his promise to us. That the believer, in sincerity of belief, having put self aside, could have the living truth act through them by the kingdom which is the foundation of holiness. So sincere belief in the ascended form of the Son of God, is the only way to the Father.

The living truth - through us.
