Do we spare feelings or tell the truth.

At church service the minister asked the question.. Do we spare feelings or tell people the truth? My opinion you tell the truth. Too many people wear their feelings on their sleaves and it's made us water down the truth in order to spare feelings. Jesus didn't water down the truth and we should either. The truth is what sets us free. Spareing someones feelings might be the very thing that sends them to hell.

I agree. Love is truth. I believe they are inseparable. To love someone is to tell the truth. This is a hard area for me because I do not like to confront. However, God has revealed to me how this has caused problems in my relationships. The cliche "care enough to confront" is true. The people who are close to me I trust them enough that I would want them to confront me and hold me accountable. I think we can harm people spiritually if we do not tell the truth. We may be rejected and that is hurtful and we may hurt feelings in the short term, but in the long term God is able to use truth. Jesus said "I am the way , the truth, and the life..." Satan is the father of deceit. Charles Stanley says that satan goes one degree from the truth to create a lie. As Jesus followers, we need to be truthful. Good post. Praying you have a great week! :)
