Certainty

Sir Ambrose Fleming (1849-1945), a renowned British scientist, said: “We must not build on the sands of an uncertain and ever-changing science, but upon the rock of the inspired Scriptures, which do not comprise the guesses of fallible minds, but the utterances of holy men of God who spoke by the Holy Ghost.”

Here is the witness of some of those “holy men of God” (2 Peter 1:21):

Solomon: “Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge, that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth?” (Proverbs 22:20-21).

Luke: “It seemed good to me … to write … that thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed” (Luke 1:3-4).

Job: “I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth” (Job 19:25).

Paul: “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day” (2 Timothy 1:12).

John: “We have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love” (1 John 4:16).
