If we know Jesus, we will stand up for His truth. We see that in regards to our salvation not all diving truths are equally important. Even though they’re not all equally important with regard to our salvation, they’re all important either for God’s glory or our and other’s well being. Since there are truths that are essential for our salvation, and those that are essential for God’s glory, our well being and that of others, we need to be willing to stand up for the truth, as Jesus did.
