| Trustworthy WORDS We live in a day of “FAKE NEWS.” Who do we trust? What do we trust? What can we believe? What can we rely on? And let us be really honest here that there is some information that we need absolute truth such as is there God, and has He said anything, and can I know Him personally. We need the truth about our condition before God and the truth of what it takes to have a relationship with God. We need truth concerning eternity and how one can spend eternity with God in His heaven. We need the truth regarding how God would want us to live. We need the truth regarding what is right and what is wrong. One of the greatest gifts to the WORLD is the WORD of God which is called the Bible or as I grew up was called the Holy Bible. Written over 1600 years with 40 different writers, it gives the ANSWERS to life’s most difficult questions. It was said by Dr. Harold Wilmington, Dean of the Liberty Home Bible Institute and author of Wilmington’s Guide to the Bible that the Bible can be summed up with two words. Those two words are CREATION and REDEMPTION. After the story of CREATION comes the story of REDEMPTION. From the pages of the Bible, Dr. W. A. Criswell said there is a scarlet thread through the Bible telling of the REDEEMER who will come and the REDEEMER who came and the REDEEMER who will come again! But is the Bible true? Is the message it gives trustworthy? Interestingly there will be times when the Bible will itself answer these questions. Our verse to DATE is one of those times. Psalm 12:6 says “The words of the LORD are pure words.” They are FLAWLESS. To convey the pureness of God’s Word a human, earthly illustration is given as the psalmist writes LIKE silver that will be purified so it is pure so is God’s Word pure. The silver goes through the fire over and over to burn away every impurity that is there. God’s Word is LIKE that. LIKE THAT!! When God speaks it is pure. It is truth. It does not need to be purified. But so we understand how pure it is God’s Word is like silver put through the fire seven times. What is God’s Word conveying? You can TRUST His Words. There is nothing FAKE about it. There is God, God who created the world and created man and woman. Man has a sinful condition that needs redemption. God sent His only Son to REDEEM us. He died on a cruel cross, dying for every human being, His precious blood poured out. He then rose again on the third day and today offers the gift of eternal life to whoever will call upon Him for salvation. Only those who call on Him will have eternal life in heaven as there is NO other name under heaven whereby men may be saved. We have TRUTHFUL news! Truthful news that you can trust your entire eternity on. Proverbs 8:8 says, “All the words of my mouth are with righteousness; Nothing crooked or perverse is in them.” Verse to DATE the Word on December 6 (12/6) is Psalms 12:6.
