Let God Be True, But Every Man a Liar

Let God Be True, But Every Man a Liar – Romans 3:4

Who do you trust?

• Your parents?
• Your best friend?
• Your preacher?

Do these people always tell you the truth? Do they always give you the best advice? Are they always right?

Certainly, we ought to place our trust in those who are closest to us, but that does not necessarily mean that those people will always be honest with us, or that they will always know what is best for us, or that the things they tell us will always be right.

Human beings are fallible.

Even when we are being sincere and honest, it is possible that we may be wrong.

God will always lead you in the right direction.

There is one person who will always tell you the truth, always knows what is best for you and is always right about everything. That person is God, and He speaks to all of us through His Word. In Second Timothy 3:16, the Bible says, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God.” The literal meaning of the word, “inspiration” is “God-breathed.” That means that all of the Bible originated in the mind of God, and that it will always lead you in the right direction.

If you want to get to Heaven, don’t trust any human being.

Even your dearest loved ones might lead you the wrong way, but the Word of God will always lead you in the right way (Psalm 119:105).

These were more noble… they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. – Acts 17:11
