Captain's meditation on John 3:19-21 - holiness and transparency

John 3:19-21 says... This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."

When we as follower of Jesus begin to live lives of holiness, walking in the light of God, our lives must be one of transparency.

I'm not sure who asked the question first (John Wesley or someone else?) but the question is still relevant now, "Have you nothing you desire to keep secret".

As a follower of Jesus, we must live holy and transparent lives, free of hypocrisy, no double standard, nothing but integrity with our actions matching the life and teaching of Jesus and His Holy Word to us.

Have you nothing you desire to keep secret today? If you do have something, confess it, repent of it, and be free of it.

Live holy, preach Jesus!
