“For we did not follow cleverly devised tales when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.” (2 Peter 1:16, NASB)
There is a saying, “A lie can travel around the world before truth has put on its shoes.” The reason is simple: human beings often believe lies more readily than the truth. That is why politicians are able to seize power by making false promises. Many fraudsters announce attractive schemes, swindle the public of their money, and flee—yet people continue to believe the lies.
In the same way, the messages proclaimed by many religions about God are largely imaginative stories. Even without any evidence, most people believe them, because such stories tell only what people like to hear. They are beautifully crafted fantasies that suit human desires. They do not wound anyone; they do not pierce the human heart; they do not expose human sin. At times, the actions attributed to God in these stories are even worse than the deeds of ordinary humans—yet people still prefer and believe them.
Christian doctrine, however, strikes directly at the human heart. It insists on an inner transformation. Other religions are like applying a poultice to a wound in the body—offering temporary relief and easy remedies. Hence, people readily accept them. Christianity, on the other hand, is like performing surgery on the human heart. It cuts in order to heal. The Word of God performs this spiritual surgery.
Christ has already completed every atoning work for us on the cross. Therefore, when we surrender our hearts to Him, we are not required to perform any further acts of atonement ourselves.
Yes, beloved, the Word of God performs surgery within a person. This is exactly what we read:
“For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12)
Indeed, the Word of God penetrates the spirit, soul, and body of a person. It weighs them, confronts them, and calls for sanctification. Many people do not like this. Therefore, they hesitate to accept Christianity.
But the apostle Peter was one who lived with the Word made flesh and experienced Him personally. That is why he confessed:
“Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life.” (John 6:68)
Likewise, the apostle John declared:
“What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the Word of Life—” (1 John 1:1)
Yes, beloved, Christianity is not a collection of myths like other belief systems. It is grounded in history and confirmed by firsthand witnesses. It has been testified to us with certainty by those who saw His majesty with their own eyes. If we firmly accept and live by the truths proclaimed in this Holy Scripture, we will experience even today that these words are living and active within us. Only when we receive these words can we truly understand that what Christianity proclaims is not a cleverly devised tale, but eternal truth.
