Besides John 3:16, probably one of the most famous Bible verses is John 8:32 “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” God, who cannot lie (Titus 1:2) has for 6000 years told nothing but the truth. On the other hand, the enemy of Christ and of souls, Satan, has been the author of all lies (John 8:44). Yet, for 6000 years, God has allowed Satan to promulgate his falsehood until the world is filled with his misrepresentations of God. Despite this, Jesus chose to come to this world darkened by the lies of Satan and the misapprehension of His character. He was not afraid to be Truth in this world. However, the father of liars (Satan) was afraid. There had been multiple attempts by Satan to destroy the bloodline that Jesus was to come through. Then shortly after Jesus was born, Satan inspired Herod to try and kill Jesus; and once Jesus began His public ministry, Satan made every attempt to silence Him. Within 3.5 years, Jesus was hanging on the cross. It was Satan’s attempt to silence Truth. The fear-filled spirit of cancellation and character assignation that goes with those who love lies finds its origins with Satan. The courageous spirit of truth-tellers originates with Christ.
