Chapter 14, “Doing the Truth” pp. 114-117
John 3:17-21
We know the truth, but how do we do the truth? If truth is simply a theory, even one we can act in accord with, Jesus’ statement that he is the truth makes no sense.
Are theory and practice actually divided? No, if something actually works in theory it does work in practice. God’s truth, in fact, always does work. It overcomes, transforms practice. here, doing the truth is nothing less than living the gospel. This living out of Christianity is how the truth is found.
There is no distinction in Christ between theory and practice. Those who believe live out their faith.
