SUBMIT EXPERIENCE TO
THE WORD OF GOD
If I
insist I was saved contrary to God’s word based on my experience then I make
the word of God submit to my experience rather than submitting my experience to
the word of God. I judge God’s sayings as
untrue. In fact, I judge God himself by imputing unfaithfulness to him. Nevertheless, such claims will not change the
faithfulness of God to save in the way he says in his word. “For
what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God
without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it
is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.” (Ro 3:3-4)
