How do we know that the doctrine of God's word is true?
Answered in 1 source
The truth of God's doctrine is revealed through His authority in scripture, confirmed by the lives transformed by it.
The doctrine of God, as revealed in scripture, is true because it emanates from God's authority and sovereignty. Jesus Himself stated in John 7:16, 'My doctrine is not mine, but His that sent me.' This underscores that the truth is rooted not in human wisdom but in divine revelation. Moreover, through the history of the church and personal testimonies, we observe the transformative power of this doctrine—it leads to salvation, sanctification, and ultimately glorification. Each believer, through faith in Christ, can attest to the gentleness and power of His truth, confirming its validity and authority beyond doubt.
