TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

BIBLE TEXT: “That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.” (Luke 1:4)

BIBLE TWEET: Luke wrote his Gospel so that we might know that the Christian Faith is founded on firm certainties—historical fact and God’s objective truth—not flimsy conjecture—human feelings and man’s subjective opinions.

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: There is no question about the certainty of who Jesus was or about what He has done, for the Christian Faith is not a matter of opinion, but of record, and that record is the divinely inspired, inerrant, and infallible Word of God. The Christian Faith is not as wishy-washy as our opinions, but as sure and certain as the oracles of God. 

“In these days men have left off faith. The spirit of the martyrs is not in them. Opinions have taken the place of convictions. Opinions are our own, and should not be too firmly held. Truth is Divine, and is worth living for and dying for…Today men are content to give heed only to the points on which the greater number appear to be agreed…The man who would force his opinions on others is a boor. He who would die for his opinions is a fool. But Christianity has not to do with opinions. It is founded on fact and Divine truth; and faith based thereon is the heritage of the Church. We can have no toleration for the veiled skepticism which is passing for Christianity today. We do not think this or that: we know!” (Sir Robert Anderson)
