So thankful that our Lord knows better than all the “theologians” in the world what ought to be preached and taught.
HE KNOWS ALL about man’s condition—his guilt, his misery, his spiritual death, his utter helplessness, his total inability to think a single right thought, to utter a single right word, to do a single right act; and yet loves every single human being—lovingly and judiciously hating sin—and still calling all to repent.
Is it left up to ourselves then, to “try” and work out and seek to reconcile “seeming” differences? GOD IS HIS OWN INTERPRETER, and HE will, through His will and Word, bring all into His light. (Eph. 5:13; Heb. 12:14-15).
It is our blessed privilege, and our secured and gracious duty, to believe what He says and do what He tells us through Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit. This, and this alone is true wisdom, and it yields, in our experience, what is true in our position in Christ—our solid, sound, and immovable foundation. (Mt. 7:24-27; Heb. 12:23-29).
