We don't like it when people lie. We like to know what the truth is even if it hurts. It makes our life safe and secure, it gives us hope and joy, it gives meaning, structure and reality to our own little private world and to the wide world around us.
Where do we find truth? In God's Word. He is the only One who is incapable of lying. He is the only one Who knows all truth for He IS truth! He said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life..." (John 14:6)
Why do so many people insist on having the words of some human being as their basis for truth? Why do they prefer to believe the words of unstable, untrustworthy, fallible men instead of the truth of the one and only, true, faithful, and loving God of the universe? He Himself said that He cannot lie. Why don't we believe Him?
There are many who say they believe Him, but when they also believe the words of others who contradict God's words they are really calling God a liar.
There are many who say they believe Him, but when they also believe the words of others who contradict God's words they are really calling God a liar.
That is so sad and it often pains my heart. But I am so thankful that the truth of His Word remains, no matter what man says or tries to do to it!
"For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endureth to all generations." (Psalm 100:5)
