Despite human sinfulness, people trusted in the LORD, and the LORD
remained faithful to those who trusted Him.
Our faith is an objective faith. We put our faith in Jesus: There are
many things we could trust in life. Jesus is the only One worthy of
complete trust.
The LORD is a communicating God: We can know for certain the object of
our faith, Jesus, because God has communicated with us. He has spoken
our language. And we don’t need any new revelation. Jesus is the final
and complete revelation of God to humanity.
Angels are not worthy of being trusted with eternal things: Angels are
created beings, and as such don’t have a permanent place in our
salvation history. They are below Jesus in every way.
Jesus is superior to angels and therefore the proper object of our
faith: The message Jesus brought is an eternal, enduring message.
Because it is eternal, the need to obey it is much greater than the
messages brought by angels.
