Silencing the opposition

Published: Oct. 25, 2015, 10 a.m.

We live in a noisy world. Opposite opinions on just about every issue seem to be getting louder and more entrenched, both claiming to represent the voice of God. But as noisy as the world is, God still gets through to human hearts with his voice - the gospel or good news. This week we take comfort in God's promise that the gospel will be heard throughout the world until Christ's return. Despite Satan's best efforts, the gospel will never be silenced. In fact, God often uses Satan's best efforts, including persecution, to cause his gospel to ring out all the more loudly and all the more clearly. Not only is sharing the gospel our mission. It's God's certain promise as well.
