What witness does the true believer in Christ have that he is accepted of God?
Answer
"He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made Him
a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of His Son." 1 John 5: 10.
Note - Faith and feeling should not be confounded. Faith is ours to exercise in the Word of God,
regardless of our feelings, and often in opposition even to our feelings. Many fail to accept the pardon and
assurance of the acceptance of Heaven, because they do not take God at His word, but instead turn their
attention to. their changeable moods and feelings. Faith always precedes the joyful feelings which naturally
result from the assurance of forgiveness and acceptance. This order is never reversed.
