God is faithful to the salvation of the entire world. Your eyes will see it; if not now, then later; if not later, then much later; but both of your eyes will see God's faithfulness. God will not relent until God has accomplished all things to God's Glory.
Can you watch my flesh be transformed before your very eyes and not cling to my mouth as if it speaks the very word of God (lacking thought and introspection and deep care for your own mouth and the mouths of a billion others)?
God understands this in our broken and terrified race (which is filled with hopelessness, as is evident in the need for man-made hope, such as religion and super-figures), and ensured that Yeshua did the majority of his speaking before God saved him from death.
They'll light a fire in complete darkness and those who have never known a single ray of light will flock and cling to that little flame, regardless of who's holding the match. Only God shines light, right??
Just because something is reasonable doesn't make it true; just because something is reasonably true doesn't mean that it is true. God does not rely on assumptions and beliefs and "it makes sense"; certainly not when it comes to the salvation of you and our race.
God is honest through love, and is love through honesty.
When bad behavior commences, who is more at fault? The powerful liar, or the one who believes him? God recognizes them both in humanity and has treated our race accordingly, saving us by means of hopeless despair and death.
And when we are healed, our minds are healed from the effects of brutal godless despair, and our bodies are healed from aging and disease and death.
A little flame cannot compare to God's power nor God's love for us.
God requires in us gentleness and kindness and honesty because we require these things from one another and from ourselves to ourselves.
We pursue what is good, not for gain from God, but because it is the decent thing to do. It is the very thing we want from our friend and from a stranger.
In our good, and in our gentleness, and in our justice, and in our kindness and honesty, God will glorify God as God sees fit. We will not be ashamed, not now, not ever.
