“For if God is not true, let us not pretend to trust Him! And if the Gospel is a lie, let us be honest enough to confess it!
But if it is true, why should we doubt it and speak with bated breath? If God's promise is true, why should we distrust it? What excuse is there for this hesitancy? "Oh," says one, "but that might be running great risks."
Risks with God, Sir? Risks about God's keeping His Word? It cannot be! "Let God be true and every man a liar." Let Heaven and earth return to chaos and old night, but the Most High cannot break His Word or run back from His promise!
Therefore, O you Pauls, if you receive a message from the Most High, publish it abroad and let your faith be known!
I should like that little word to drop into the ears of some of you who think you love Christ but have never told of your love—you that are hiding in the background. Come out and show yourselves! As for you who have long proclaimed your Savior, do it more and more and, "Speak His Word, though kings should hear, or yield to sinful shame."”
