“God, without man's help, fulfilled His faithfulness, on our behalf, all by Himself .” [Pastor]
As the Son can do nothing of Himself but what the Father does, so our life is hid IN Christ, IN God; and the life we now live we live by the faith of the Son of God; who loved us, and gave His life for us. [John 5:19; Colossians 3:3; Galations 2:20]
So, as the Son lived by the faithfulness of the Father, we too must, and can only, live by HIS faithfulness; whether we believe or not. [John 6:57; 2 Timothy 2:13]
“Every trial we experience is bringing us to the conclusion that man should not depend on himself for anything; but in the Lord's faithfulness in everything.” [Pastor]
Since every word is established at the mouth of two or three witnesses; consider the summations of the apostle Paul, and the prophet Habakkuk, in a word: “The just shall live by (his) faith;” and, in actuality, HIS faithfulness. [2 Cor 13:1; Romans 1:17; Habakkuk 2:4] Amen!
