Some wonder why our Lord commends faith so highly and condemns unbelief so severely. The glory of the God of truth is implicated in this. It is God who has given us the record of his Son: it is God who has borne witness throughout the scriptures, and, by his own voice from heaven, of the salvation in Christ. He who does not believe on Christ Jesus is guilty of the greatest blasphemy! It is God (not men) that he does not believe! He has made the God of all truth to be a liar because he refuses God's witness concerning Christ. “There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost, and these three are one” (1 John 5:7)!
