Do You Trust God’s Word?

Perhaps the most controversial issue of Christianity is the trustworthiness of the Word of God. The church has been exposed to over two hundred years of concentrated criticism and skepticism leveled against the creditability of the Scriptures, so that now even Christians are divided with respect to their confidence in the Bible, in the Word of God. And I remind you that this is our greatest point of vulnerability. That Christ, in spite of the misery and loneliness that He was subjected to, said, “I live by every word.” I am going to believe God. God has said it.

And it’s not believing in God that makes the difference whether you’re Christian or not; it’s believing God. Do you believe God when He speaks? And I think that’s the test that we’re going through today, the test of whether or not we live in trust of the Word of God or whether we’re willing to negotiate it with unbelief.
