EXPLAIN

If you believe it, you should be willing to say it, but if you say it, you must be able to explain it

Truth is transcendent fundamental or spiritual reality and belief is trust, faith, and confidence in what is true.

With a pure and softened heart, a man will look for and accept truth throughout his life. He knows sometimes it will be hard to accept because truth often runs against the grain of what he wants it to be and what the World claims it to be.

He also knows that what he wants and what the World claims are both immaterial to what the truth is. He is patient in his search for truth because he knows that it will eventually cut through the fog.

But truth revealed and believed is not for a man to keep to hidden, like a lamp beneath a bowl. It is for him to share so that others may know the joyful freedom of living in the truth. To share truth, a man must be willing to patiently explain it to the seeker who is traveling the same rocky path of doubt that he once trod. Otherwise, it would be like handing a man a book written in a foreign language.

If you believe it, you should be willing to say it, but if you say it, you must be able to explain it
