Bible Note: "God, in His infinite condescension and transcendent grace, has given us His Word for this very purpose: that we need not stumble along blindly, ignorant of what is pleasing or displeasing to Him, but that we might know His 'mind.' That Divine Word is given to us not simply for information, but for the regulation of our conduct: to enlighten our minds, to mold our hearts, to direct all our conduct. That Divine Word supplies us with an unerring chart by which to steer through the dangerous sea of life, which if we sincerely and diligently follow, will deliver us from disastrous rocks and submerged reefs, and direct us safely to the Heavenly Harbor. In that Word is all the instructions we can need for every problem, every emergency we may be called upon to face. That Word has been given to us 'that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works' (2 Tim. 3:17). O how thankful and joyful we should be that the Triune God has favored us with such a Word!" --Arthur W. Pink |
