Prov. 23:23<\/a>)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nThere is often a price to be paid in obtaining the truth of God, and we should be willing to pay the price, whatever it may be. Once having obtained the truth, we should not give it up.<\/p>\n
The verse is not to be taken with such strict literalness that we would buy Bibles and Christian literature, but would not sell them under any circumstances. Buying the truth here means making great sacrifices to achieve the knowledge of divine principles. It may mean hostility from one\u2019s family, loss of employment, separation from religious ties, financial loss, or even physical abuse.<\/p>\n
To sell the truth means to compromise it or abandon it altogether. We should never be willing to do that.<\/p>\n
In his book Church in the House, Arnot wrote: \u201cIt is a general law of human nature that what comes lightly, goes lightly. What we gain by a hard struggle, we retain with a firmer grasp, whether it be our fortune or our faith. Those men who have obtained great wealth without any trouble or toil of their own, often scatter it and die in poverty. It is seldom that the man who gains a fortune by gigantic labor wastes the wealth he has won. In like manner, give me the Christian who has fought his way to his Christianity. If it is through fire and water that he has reached the wealthy place, he will not lightly leave his rich inheritance.\u201d<\/p>\n
Saints of all ages have turned their back on family, fame and fortune in order to enter the strait gate and walk the narrow way. Like the Apostle Paul, they have counted all else but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus the Lord. Like Rahab they have renounced the idols of paganism and acknowledged Jehovah as the only true God, even if it seemed like betrayal of their own people. Like Daniel, they have refused to sell the truth, even if it meant being thrown into a den of bloodthirsty lions.<\/p>\n
We live in a day when the spirit of the martyrs is largely gone. Men would rather compromise their faith than suffer for it. The voice of the prophet is missing. Faith is flabby. Convictions concerning the truth are condemned as dogmatism. In order to achieve a show of unity, men are willing to sacrifice fundamental doctrines. They sell the truth and buy it not.<\/p>\n
But God will always have those choice souls who so value the hidden treasure of truth that they are willing to sell all that they have to buy it, and having bought it, they are unwilling to sell it at any price.<\/p>\n

\u00bbKaufe Wahrheit und verkaufe sie nicht.\u00ab\u00a0Spr\u00fcche 23,23<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nMan muss oft etwas daf\u00fcr hergeben, wenn man die Wahrheit Gottes haben\u00a0will, und\u00a0wir sollten bereit sein, diesen Preis zu zahlen, was es auch sein mag. Und wenn wir\u00a0die Wahrheit einmal bekommen haben, dann sollten\u00a0wir sie auch nie wieder loslassen.<\/p>\n
Nun ist der Vers nicht so streng w\u00f6rtlich zu verstehen, dass wir so viele Bibeln und\u00a0christliche B\u00fccher wie nur m\u00f6glich kaufen m\u00fcssten, sie aber unter keinen Umst\u00e4nden\u00a0wieder verkaufen d\u00fcrften. Die Wahrheit kaufen bedeutet hier vielmehr, gro\u00dfe Opfer\u00a0auf sich zu nehmen, um Kenntnisse \u00fcber Gott und Seine Grunds\u00e4tze zu erwerben. Das\u00a0kann einem beispielsweise die Feindschaft
\nder eigenen Familienmitglieder eintragen,\u00a0den Verlust der Arbeitsstelle\u00a0bedeuten oder die Trennung von fr\u00fcheren religi\u00f6sen Bindungen,\u00a0finanzielle Verluste oder auch k\u00f6rperliche Misshandlungen mit sich bringen.<\/p>\n
Die Wahrheit verkaufen, bedeutet, faule Kompromisse zu schlie\u00dfen oder sie ganz\u00a0preiszugeben. Dazu sollten wir niemals bereit sein.<\/p>\n
Arnot schreibt in seinem Buch \u00bbDie Kirche zu Hause\u00ab: \u00bbEs ist eine allgemeine\u00a0Regel in der Natur des Menschen, dass das, was mit Leichtigkeit kommt, auch mit\u00a0Leichtigkeit wieder geht. Was wir aber durch einen schweren\u00a0Kampf errungen haben,\u00a0das halten wir auch energisch fest, sei es nun unser Verm\u00f6gen oder auch unser Glaube.\u00a0Die Menschen, die ohne nennenswerte
\neigene Sorgen und M\u00fchen zu einem gro\u00dfen\u00a0Reichtum gekommen\u00a0sind, vergeuden ihn oft und sterben schlie\u00dflich in Armut. Es\u00a0ist dagegen selten, dass ein Mensch, der ein Verm\u00f6gen durch riesige Anstrengungen\u00a0erworben\u00a0hat, diesen schwer errungenen Reichtum einfach verschwendet. Genauso\u00a0geht es dem Christen, der seinen Weg zum Glauben erk\u00e4mpft hat. Falls er durchs
\nFeuer und durchs Wasser gehen musste, um diesen Platz des Reichtums zu finden,\u00a0wird er dies k\u00f6stliche Erbe auch nicht leichtfertig\u00a0wieder aufgeben.\u00ab<\/p>\n
Zu allen Zeiten haben sich heilige Menschen von ihren Familien, ihrem Ruhm\u00a0und ihrem Verm\u00f6gen abgewandt, um durch die enge Pforte einzugehen\u00a0und auf dem\u00a0schmalen Pfad zu wandern. Wie der Apostel Paulus haben sie alles andere f\u00fcr wertlos\u00a0gehalten im Vergleich zu der Herrlichkeit\u00a0der Erkenntnis Jesu Christi, des Herrn.\u00a0Wie Rahab haben sie auf die G\u00f6tzen des Heidentums verzichtet und den Herrn\u00a0als den einzig wahren Gott anerkannt, selbst wenn es so aussah wie Verrat an ihrem\u00a0eigenen Volk. Wie Daniel haben sie sich geweigert, die Wahrheit zu verkaufen, selbst\u00a0wenn das f\u00fcr sie bedeutete, in den Feuerofen geworfen zu werden, der so hei\u00df war,\u00a0dass man sogar Eisen darin h\u00e4tte schmelzen k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\n
Wir leben heute in einer Zeit, in der der Geist des Martyriums weitgehend\u00a0verloren\u00a0gegangen ist. Die Menschen w\u00fcrden eher ihren Glauben aufgeben, als f\u00fcr ihn zu\u00a0leiden. Die Stimme des Propheten kann man nirgends mehr h\u00f6ren. Der Glaube ist\u00a0schlaff. Feste \u00dcberzeugungen des Glaubens werden als Dogmatismus verurteilt. Und\u00a0um das Bild der gro\u00dfen Einigkeit nicht zu st\u00f6ren, sind die Menschen auch bereit,\u00a0grundlegende Lehren aufzugeben.\u00a0Sie verkaufen die Wahrheit und kaufen sie nicht.<\/p>\n
Aber Gott wird immer einige auserw\u00e4hlte Menschen haben, die den verborgenen\u00a0Schatz der Wahrheit so hoch sch\u00e4tzen, dass sie bereit sind, alles, was sie haben, zu\u00a0verkaufen, nur um diese Wahrheit zu erhalten; und wenn sie sie erworben haben, sind\u00a0sie nicht mehr bereit, sie zu irgendeinem Preis wieder herzugeben.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
October 17 \u201cBuy the truth, and sell it not.\u201d (Prov. 23:23) There is often a price to be paid in obtaining the truth of God, and we should be willing to pay the price, whatever it may be.
