Do you believe God? How far?
Dear Friends,
The Apostle Paul wrote, “Let God be true but every man a liar.” Do you agree with him? Do you believe God’s Word no matter what? That’s the question today’s devotional asks you to ponder. May God help you to believe Him. God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
II Timothy 3:16-17 (ESV)
16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
“If, my brethren, God had spoken to us in the Scriptures, and revealed a truth which had no analogy in nature, which was not supported by the judgment of learned men, and to which our own experience seemed to be a contradiction, yet, nevertheless and notwithstanding, God must be believed. If every morsel of evidence that ever came in our way had to be placed in the opposite scale, and we had nothing but ‘God hath said it’ to put into this one, the fact that God hath said it ought, to every loyal heart, to weigh down all the rest. Though you have not seen, surely you are never going to compare your poor eyes with God; though you have never heard, surely you are not going to set the evidence of your eyes against the declaration of God who cannot lie.” [Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLVII, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1901), p. 161]
