Scripture shows us that God’s truth is not always delivered in soft tones. From the prophets to the apostles—and Jesus Himself—we see instruction, parables, sharp questions, satire, and even rebuke used to pierce pride, expose hypocrisy, and awaken hearts. The “serrated edge” of God’s Word cuts not to destroy, but to heal, calling us to repentance and life.
At Pentecost, Peter boldly proclaimed, “This Jesus, whom you crucified, God has made both Lord and Christ.” The gospel is offensive—it confronts sin and pride—but it also brings hope, mercy, and freedom. Even in times of persecution and cultural conflict, believers are called to speak truth with conviction and compassion, just as Jesus did. In a world filled with competing voices, ideologies, and pressures, we must cling to God’s Word, live as His people, and boldly proclaim Christ.
