“What then? If some did not believe, their unbelief will not nullify the faithfulness of God, will it? May it never be! Rather, let God be found true, though every man be found a liar…” Rom. 3:3-4 NASB
God is God. It is such an easy thing to say and from our perspective can be said very flippantly. For if God is God and His word is true, as He is, then there is a mandate hurled at each and every one of us. Will we obey that word or not? And our response, either affirmative or not, can never “nullify” the truth that God is God and we are obligated to that truth.
I think we Christians really like this idea when everything is going our way and our lives have no challenges presented to our faith. But oh how we squirm when this truth remains true, even when we want something else.
