Blessings of Truth - 1

+ Shield

Psalm 91:4

He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.

+ Freedom from Sin

John 8:32-36

and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”  They answered him, “We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, ‘You will become free’?”
  Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.  The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever.  So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

+ Sanctification

John 17:17

Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth

John 17:19

And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.

+ Salvation

Ephesians 1:13

In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

2 Thessalonians 2:13

 But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the first fruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

Thoughts 

The constant struggle between flesh and spirit will never be finished.  This struggle is eternal and the essence of life.  The purpose of life is loving, the penetration of everything with love.  It is the slow and gradual change from evil to good, it is the creation of the real life, the life filled with love. - Leo Tolstoy
