Faith & Trust
A great many Christians are slaves to the habit of doubting.
Doubts are all from the devil, and are always untrue. And the only way to meet them is by a direct and emphatic denial.
God’s invariable rule is faith first and feeling second, in everything.
What shall I do to be saved?
All faith that turns towards Jesus is the right faith. It may bring no conscience rapture. It may be as weak as the woman’s touch on His garment’s hem.
A jealous and holy distrust of self may give rise to the question even in the believer’s heart, but the continuance of such a doubt would be an evil indeed.
Why then do we calculate our forces, and consult with flesh and blood to our grievous wounding?
