Deny God’s Promise, Destroy His Character

God has sworn by Himself—His Word is unbreakable, His promises cannot fail. Everything He has revealed about His love, justice, mercy, and sovereignty depends on this certainty.

But what happens if we deny His promise? If we say His Word is not true for all, then we unravel His very character. His love becomes unreliable, His justice inconsistent, His mercy selective, and His sovereignty weak. If His Word can fail, then so can He.

This is not merely a theological question—it is a reckoning with the nature of God Himself. Either His Word stands firm, or His character collapses into contradiction. If God is true, then His promises must be true for all, without exception.

You must decide: Will you affirm His unshakable truth, or deny His promise and destroy His character in your mind?

God’s love fails. Yet, 1 Corinthians 13:8 states, "Love never fails."
God’s love ends. Yet, Jeremiah 31:3 affirms, "Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you."
God’s love doesn’t bear all things. Yet, 1 Corinthians 13:7 declares, "Love bears all things."*
God’s love is conditional. Yet, Titus 3:4-5 confirms, "But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared, he saved us—not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to his mercy."
God’s mercy ends. Yet, Lamentations 3:22 reminds us, "...for his mercies never end."
God’s mercy does not extend to all creation. Yet, Romans 11:32 states, "For God has imprisoned all in disobedience so that He may have mercy on all," and Psalm 145:9 declares, "The LORD is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all He has made."
God’s mercy is not triumphant. Yet, James 2:13 declares, "Mercy triumphs over judgment."*
God’s justice is flawed. Yet, Deuteronomy 32:4 declares, "The Rock—His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A faithful God, without bias, He is righteous and true."*
God is vindictive, not just. Yet, Psalm 103:8-10 assures us, "The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in faithful love."*
God’s faithfulness depends on us. Yet, 2 Timothy 2:13 affirms, "If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself."
God’s salvation is earned, not a gift. Yet, Ephesians 2:8-9 declares, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast."*
Faith originates from us. Yet, Philippians 1:29 clarifies, "For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for Him."*
God keeps a record of wrongs forever. Yet, 1 Corinthians 13:5 assures, "Love does not keep a record of wrongs."*
God’s character changes. Yet, Malachi 3:6 affirms, "Because I, the LORD, have not changed..."
God is not truthful. Yet, Numbers 23:19 declares, "God is not a man, that he might lie, or a son of man, that he might change his mind."*
God’s will is defeated. Yet, Proverbs 19:21 states, "Many are the plans in the heart of a man, but it is the purpose (will) of the LORD that will prevail."
God’s will can be resisted. Yet, Romans 9:16, 19 states, "So then, it does not depend on human will or effort but on God who shows mercy... For who resists His will?"*
God is not sovereign over all. Yet, Daniel 4:35 confirms, "All the inhabitants of the earth are counted as nothing, and He does what He wants with the army of heaven and the inhabitants of the earth."
God’s grace has limits. Yet, Romans 5:20 states, "Where sin multiplied, grace multiplied even more."
God’s victory is partial. Yet, 1 Corinthians 15:54-57 proclaims, "But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Jesus’ sacrifice isn’t fully effective. Yet, Romans 6:10 declares, "For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all."*
God’s Kingdom stops increasing. Yet, Isaiah 9:7 declares, "Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end."*
God’s promise of renewal and reconciliation is not for all. Yet, Colossians 1:19-20 states, "And by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross."
God does not get what pleases Him. Yet, Psalm 115:3 declares, "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases."*
God is not the Father of all creation. Yet, Psalm 24:1 declares, "The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it."*
The Good News is not for all. Yet, Luke 2:10 states, "Don't be afraid, for look, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all people."

Stand Firm in What God Has Sworn

There is no escaping the reality before you. Either God’s Word is true for all, or everything about Him collapses.

If you deny His promise, you declare His love conditional, His mercy limited, His justice flawed, and His sovereignty breakable. If His Word is uncertain, so is His faithfulness. If His promise is not absolute, then neither is His nature. To doubt His Word is to dismantle His very character.

But if His Word stands, then His love never fails, His mercy endures forever, His justice is perfect, and His sovereignty is unchallenged. His promises are certain, and His victory is complete.

The choice is inescapable:
Will you stand firm in the truth of His promise, or deny it and destroy His character?

There is no middle ground. His Word will not return void. His Kingdom will never end. Where do you stand?
