Thought for the Day
29 December 2013
"Beyond all doubt it is the teaching of Scripture that the true life is at every point and every stage God’s gift. It is receivable through faith, and faith in the Biblical sense is only possible in that which can be trusted as true. A man may say “I believe” and mean no more than “I hold it as an opinion”. In the Scriptural sense “I believe” means “I put my whole life in trust in the conviction that this is true”. Biblical faith is not a leap in the dark; it is a coming to the light."
