Truth


Truth consists in the minds giving to things the importance they have in reality.
Jean Danielou

The implication to a follower of Christ are high. What seems most real to us – our material existence or the Kingdom of Heaven. It seems Jesus was contrasting this world and His kingdom often if not exclusively in his teachings. This present world is contrasted with what is most unreal – the Kingdom of God.
We are citizens of this kingdom, joint-heirs with Christ. But it all seems to be in the distant fog.
We are entreated to have the mind of Christ. If we did would we not place more emphasis on that which is real – the Kingdom of Heaven?
