One neither believes or disbelieves what is stated in a tongue unknown to him. At this juncture I would like to inject a thought which will immediately commend itself to every rational person. It is that every honest heart will at once embrace and adopt all known truth. Such a mind is influenced by a love for truth as truth and, therefore, accepts truth because it is truth. It is impossible for one who loves truth because it is truth, to reject any truth when it becomes known unto him.
All truth is harmonious and consistent.
One truth cannot contradict another truth. Truth is not affected by time or place. One may not have learned many truths but if he believes and adopts the truths he has learned because they are truth, he will embrace other truths as they are disclosed and he discovers them to be truth. The faith that saves does not require that one understand all truths but it does demand that one understand and accept the great underlying truth of the Christian calling, that Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God and the Lord of life, and is, by His own testimony, the Way, the Truth and the Life. Surrender unto Him is the hope of salvation but the commitment unto One who is the truth implies that he who surrenders will accept all truths as he comes to know them.
