 You used to hear people say, I give you my word and that meant something. People would say things like my word is bond. But that's not really the case anymore. People will say almost anything and not mean it. But there is one person who I know who has made a statement and what he said he meant. That was Jesus. He's speaking to Martha in John chapter 11. It started in verse 25. He says, I am the resurrection and the life. And he says, everyone, all the people that are believing in me. So if you are believing in him, he says that they will never die. Now he's speaking of an eternal salvation. He's speaking of this thing, eternal security. And he says, the people, if you are one that's believing in him, he says the promise, you shall never die. And what he says at the end to Martha, he says, do you believe this? Jesus is saying, do you believe my words? His word is his bond. His words will never fail and will never come back to him void. Do you believe this?
