The Truth can't be compromised

Event: Paul’s Trial Before Felix

S – Scripture
Acts 25 v. 8-9 Paul said in his defense, “Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended at all.” But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, “do you wish to go up to Jerusalem, and there be tried on these charges before me?”
 
O – Observation
Politics. Politics will always mute or dilute the truth. In this case, Festus knew there was no case against Paul, but yet he wanted to do the Jews a favor. This for that. Compromise. Appeasing different factions. But the reality is this, Christianity does not play politics The truth can’t be compromised. God’s word stands on its own. John 1 v. 1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
 
A - Application
Am I compromising God’s word?  
 
P – Prayer
Jesus, Help  me to always state the truth.  Love Will.
