Their value rests in their faithfulness to Scripture. The B...

What does God say to the wicked man who would "take my covenant in thy mouth" (Psalm 50:16)? Read verse 17 and ask what that man has done with the words of God, and whether a man can hate the Word of God and still enter heaven.

The text highlights the parable of the persistent widow to demonstrate that God, unli...
