The Truth Has A Special Ring!
By Mark Flippo
We must have a true, unlike the Liberty Bell which was flawed from the beginning. When you have a flaw in your character it takes God Himself to dig down into your spirit to point them out to you. He will correct any and all flaws if you allow Him to work with Him! He has eagle eyes with magnifying glass built in!
There is widespread disagreement about when the first crack appeared on the Liberty Bell. Hair-line cracks on bells were bored out to prevent expansion. However, it is agreed that the final expansion of the crack which rendered the Bell unringable was on Washington's Birthday in 1846.The Philadelphia Public Ledger takes up the story in its February 26, 1846 publication: Flaws in material and labor meant the finished product would not last.
"The old Independence Bell rang its last clear note on Monday last in honor of the birthday of Washington and now hangs in the great city steeple irreparably cracked and dumb. It had been cracked before but was set in order of that day by having the edges of the fracture filed so as not to vibrate against each other ... It gave out clear notes and loud, and appeared to be in excellent condition until noon, when it received a sort of compound fracture in a zig-zag direction through one of its sides which put it completely out of tune and left it a mere wreck of what it was."
This scripture really fits this lesson. scripture truth has a certain sound and feel! Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.”
Matthew 7:17-20
