\u201c\u2026. let God be true, but every man a liar \u2026\u201d (Romans 3:4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201d \u2026 Abraham believed God \u2026 \u201d (Genesis 3:6). The essence of faith is simply taking God at His Word. \u201cWhat more can he say than to you he hath said?\u201d \u201d \u2026 he hath said \u2026 so that we may boldly say \u2026 \u201d (Hebrews 13:5-6). We are thrown back upon revelation, not reason. God has spoken and holy men recorded it. Back of everything stands the record. If we are to believe the Living Word, we must accept the Written Word. Jesus accepted the Old Testament as the Word of God, and He told us that His words were spirit and life. \u201cTis so sweet to trust in Jesus\u201d- but how do we trust Him? The next line has it, \u201cJust to take Him at His Word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not \u201ca feeling fond and fugitive,\u201d not a frame of mind strenuously maintained, but a calm reliance on, \u201cIt is written,\u201d that is it. For \u201d \u2026 these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name\u201d (John 20:31). Take His Word for it!<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
