Treasures of Truth Revealed
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for
they shall be filled. Matt. 5:6.
All who receive the gospel message into the heart will long to proclaim
it. The heaven-born love of Christ must find expression. Those who have put
on Christ will relate their experience, tracing step by step the leadings of
the Holy Spirit--their hungering and thirsting for the knowledge of God and
of Jesus Christ whom He has sent, the results of their searching of the
Scriptures, their prayers, their soul agony, and the words of Christ to
them, "Thy sins be forgiven thee." It is unnatural for any to keep these
things secret, and those who are filled with the love of Christ will not do
so.
In proportion as the Lord has made them the depositaries of sacred
truth will be their desire that others shall receive the same blessing. And
as they make known the rich treasures of God's grace, more and still more of
the grace of Christ will be imparted to them. They will have the heart of a
little child in its simplicity and unreserved obedience. Their souls will
pant after holiness, and more and more of the treasures of truth and grace
will be revealed to them to be given to the world.
The great storehouse of truth is the Word of God--the written Word, the
book of nature, and the book of experience in God's dealing with human life.
Here are the treasures from which Christ's workers are to draw. In the
search after truth they are to depend upon God, not upon human
intelligences, the great men whose wisdom is foolishness with God. Through
His own appointed channels the Lord will impart a knowledge of Himself to
every seeker.
If the follower of Christ will believe His Word and practice it, there
is no science in the natural world that he will not be able to grasp and
appreciate. There is nothing but that will furnish him means for imparting
the truth to others. Natural science is a treasure house of knowledge from
which every student in the school of Christ may draw. As we contemplate the
beauty of nature, as we study its lessons in the cultivation of the soil, in
the growth of the trees, in all the wonders of earth and sea and sky, there
will come to us a new perception of truth. And the mysteries connected with
God's dealings with men, the depths of His wisdom and judgment as seen in
human life--these are found to be a storehouse rich in treasure.
But it is in the written Word that a knowledge of God is most clearly
revealed to fallen man. This is the treasure house of the unsearchable
riches of Christ. . . . The truths of redemption are capable of constant
development and expansion. Though old, they are ever new, constantly
revealing to the seeker for truth a greater glory and a mightier power
(Christ's Object Lessons, pp. 125-127). Lift Him Up, pp112
