Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. Faithful Sayings This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. I Timothy one fifteen. The adjective faithful is usually applied either to God or to those godly men and women who remain true to their words and convictions.
However, there are eight New Testament references to words or sayings that are faithful. Six of the references to faithful sayings are found in Paul's pastoral epistles as he gave counsel to young pastors Timothy and Titus, the first being our text for the day. Here are Paul's faithful sayings: one. Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Two.
If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. First Timothy 3.1. Three. Bodily exercise profiteth little, but godliness is profitable unto all things. 1 Timothy 4:8.
Yeah. If we be dead with him, we shall also live with him. If we suffer, we shall also reign with him. If we deny him, He also will deny us. second Timothy 2, 11-12.
5. They which have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. Titus 3:8. The sixth reference is a command that any bishop must continue holding fast the faithful word, same as saying, as he has been taught that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. The final two references are in the Bible's last two chapters, stressing that the words of Revelation are indeed true and believable.
After stating his glorious promises for the future life, Christ told John, Write, for these words are true and faithful. Then, after the magnificent description of the holy city, the angel said, These sayings are faithful and true. All the Bible sayings are true, of course, but these that are specifically called faithful surely warrant our special attention.
