Paul says, “Now I pray to God that you do no evil, not that we should appear approved, but that you should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates. For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.” My friend, you can’t do anything against the truth. I don’t worry about these folk today that are disagreeing. That’s all right. You can do nothing against the truth but for the truth. This is a great verse. We should declare the Word of God, therefore, not defend it. It doesn’t need defending. Just declare it. Just give it out. Oh, that’s the important thing, let’s give it out. We can’t do anything against the truth, but for the truth, and God will bless that.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
