Taking No Chances<\/p>\n

\u201cI know whom I have believed\u201d<\/span> (2 Timothy 1:12).<\/p>\n

Once in a while somebody speaks of \u201cstaking all on Christ,\u201d or risking everything on God\u2019s promises, as though it were a great gamble. But we are not gambling when we venture on God\u2019s Word. Staking something on an uncertainty is a gamble, but when we commit to Christ we are depending on an absolute certainty that cannot fail and we are jeopardizing nothing. It is one thing to act on some vague suggestion, trying to imagine what may or may not be actually true. It is another thing to rest on something we know is true, though sometimes we may not fully comprehend it. Then we may with confidence live in the good and reality of it, because it is absolute truth.<\/p>\n

God\u2019s promises are true, and \u201cforever<\/span> <\/span>\u2026<\/span> <\/span>settled in heaven\u201d <\/span>(Psalm 119:89). Jesus is \u201cthe Truth\u201d<\/span> (John 14:6). Paul knew in whom he trusted. There was no chance about it, but absolute certainty. We are risking nothing when we trust Him. \u201cCommit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass\u201d <\/span>(Psalm 37:5).<\/p>\n
