Psalms 100:5

For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.”

Have you ever wondered what is right or wrong? Or maybe you have questioned religion. Does it bother you to see so many different religious groups claiming to be the right one? Are you confused by the vast number of various bible translations? Have you ever thought, “Who cares about all that religion and stuff? They can’t even agree with themselves! How do they know who is right or wrong?”

This problem reminds of a game I played in my high school Spanish class. It was called telephone. The students would sit in a semi-circle facing the teacher. He would then whisper something in the first student’s ear so that they could whisper the same thing in the next person’s ear. Then each student would pass the message along to the next student until the last student would say the message out loud. More often than not, the teacher ended up laughing while the first student starred intently trying to figure out who mixed up the message.

In this Psalm God lets us know we don’t have to rely on the “telephone” because it will more than likely end up in confusion. He has promised that his truth would last from the moment he created it unto the very last day of time. That means, God himself, has and will continue to preserve his truth! Even the generation that you live in can know and understand God’s truth just as it was revealed to Adam. The question then remains, “Where are you getting your truth from?”
