DAILY READINGS: 1 Chronicles 1:1-54; Ezekiel 2:1-3:15; 2 Timothy 3:1-17
And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made him horns of iron, and said, Thus saith the Lord, With these thou shalt push Syria until they be consumed. 2 Chronicles 18:10
Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? 2 Cor. 10:7
In a day in which false teachers abound, it is imperative that God’s people see through the charade that mark many of the merchandisers of the Word of God. Zedekiah was impressive in his appearance and
persuasive in his words, but neither were from the Lord, a trait of every false prophet. He preached a popular message to an audience who listened without discernment. Biblical teaching is the need of the day and substance, not show, is God’s requirement. —Mark Kolchin
The Bible stands every test we give it, for its author is divine;
By grace alone I expect to live it, and to prove and to make it mine. —Haldor Lillenas
