In John 14, our text down here in verse 21, I believe it is, Jesus speaking, and he said,

He that has my commandments and keeps them, he it is that loves me.

Who loves him?

The one that has his commandments, his words, and keeps them.

And he that loves me shall be loved of my father, and I will love him and will manifest myself to him. Thank you, Lord. The Bible tells us in Isaiah, what is it, 45, 15 or so, it says, God's a God who hides himself. Here we see God's a God who

reveals himself.

You know, sometimes things, passages like that, people say, well, see, there are contradictions in the Bible.

That's no contradiction except in your head.

It irks me to hear people elevate their little puny intelligence above the eternal, perfect word of God.

And act like because they can't understand it, something's wrong.

No, it just showed up one of the many, many, many inadequacies of your reasoning.

All it proves is that you don't understand something, which we already knew.

There was a lot you didn't understand.

But the word is right all the time.

And nothing in this book contradicts any other thing in this book.

If you think it does, there's something wrong with your thinking.

Not the book.

You clear now?

Don't be foolish about these things.

His word is perfect. I mean,'s like precious metal that's been purified seven times and heaven and earth will pass away, but this is forever.

Everything he has said is perfect because he's perfect. And there's been many times in my life that I read something, I thought, well, how does

that fit?
