Facts Change in the Light of Truth

Every notice how facts change in the light of truth.  For years it was believed that the earth was flat and that belief was considered a fact until is was discovered that the world was round.  Just imagine how the people of that time conformed their lives to the belief the earth was flat and even some were afraid to venture to far for fear of falling off the edge of the world!

How about the fact that it was considered healthier to eat margarine than butter and now we know the opposite is true.  Think of how many people replaced butter with margarine in their diets in light of that belief.

Remember when eggs were considered very bad because of high cholesterol.  A lot of people eliminated eggs from their diets because of that belief.  Now research suggest that they are not bad at all, and they are actually healthy for you.  

What I'm alluding to is this, you conform your life to facts you believe to be true and when you conform your life around beliefs that are not true you limit your possibilities.  You see, belief in a fact, true or false holds your life within the limits of that belief.  Thus, I employ you to examine the facts and beliefs that you allow to take root in your mind.

Jesus, said two very simple things many years ago, "It is done unto you as you believe", and "you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free."  Now those are two facts that will never change.
