Only God Is Infallible

Only God Is Infallible

Only God is without flaw. Only God never makes mistakes. Only God is supremely, totally, completely, and always trustworthy. And God is the only one in whom it is safe to place our trust.

Angelic perfection failed in heaven. One-third of the angels rebelled. Satan can appear as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14), and Paul tells us that even if an angel from heaven came with another gospel, we should not believe it (Galatians 1:8). We must not place our trust in angels. Angels can rebel. Angels can deceive. Angels are fallible.

Human perfection failed in Eden. Adam and Eve believed lies and rebelled against God. They infected themselves with fear and selfishness, and the entire human species is dying of this terminal sin condition. All our righteousness is nothing but symptoms of the sickness of sin (Isaiah 64:6). We are fallible. We must not place our faith, our trust, in other sinful humans.

It is dangerous to trust people, pastors, teachers, relatives, doctors, and politicians. People, even those led and inspired of God, can make mistakes. People, even when working for God, can make mistakes.

  • Moses made a mistake when he struck the rock (Numbers 20:11, 12).
  • Elijah made a mistake when he ran away and “prayed that he might die” (1 Kings 19:3, 4 NIV84).
  • Paul made a mistake when he ignored God’s warning and returned to Jerusalem (Acts 21:4, 10, 11).
  • Peter made a mistake in giving in to pressure from legalists and had to be corrected by Paul (Galatians 2:14).

These great heroes of God made mistakes, but God did not cast them away. They did not lose salvation, for their salvation did not come from their performance; it was a gift from God. The Creator was not only using them to advance the plan of salvation, but God’s plan was being worked out in them! They, like us, were also sinners saved by grace through their living faith in God. They had all come to trust God; they all desired to honor God, but they were fallible. Despite their goal to live for God, they still suffered from the sin condition that needed overcoming. They were all finite beings with human foibles, weakness, fatigue, and emotions, and they all made mistakes. They were not rebelling against God; they were simply wrong in those specific moments because they were fallible.

We must not place our trust in other human beings. We must trust only in Jesus. This is why each person must individually know the truth for themselves. We must each know the Scripture for ourselves. We must each know God and Jesus Christ for ourselves. We must each know for ourselves the duty God would have for us. We must each build a living faith upon the solid rock of truth found only in our infallible God as He has revealed Himself to us in His three threads of evidence: Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16), science and nature (Romans 1:20), and our personal experiences with God (Psalm 34:8; John 20:27).

The truth about God, understood and experienced for ourselves, must be the foundation for our individual living faith. Every person must be fully persuaded in their own mind (Romans 14:5), and each person must grow up from newborns in Christ, from children who look to the teacher to tell them the right answer, to mature Christians who have developed by practice the ability to discern the right from the wrong (Hebrews 5:14).

There is danger when we believe based on what others have studied and what others have concluded. There is danger in trusting someone because they have a degree in theology or medicine, or because they hold a particular office, whether in the church or in government. And that danger is following another person into error—even if that person is sincere. It is the danger of failing to develop one’s God-given ability to reason, think, discern, and know the truth because it is the truth. It is the danger in, without thinking, following someone into confusion and error. How many Christians today would be able to stand up to the apostle Peter if he came to their church, to tell him that he is wrong? Only God is infallible.

There is also danger in trusting the crowd, of going along with the majority, whether the majority of the world or the majority of the church.

The world was wrong in Noah’s day.

The world was wrong in Moses’ day.

The “church” and its leaders were wrong in Jesus’ day.

The “church” and its leaders were wrong in the Dark Ages.

As we approach the final moments before Jesus returns, the Bible warns us of terrible times, troublesome times, distressing times. Our fears will be inflamed and our worst anxieties aroused. Everything that we have built our safety upon will be threatened. And it is when our earthly securities are removed, when every single earthly support is stripped away—when our bank account is empty, our home is taken, our liberty destroyed, our family members abandon us, our friends betray us, our church rejects us, and we feel all alone—that we will either be standing upon the solid rock, Jesus Christ, or collapsing into ruin and despair.  

Only those who have developed a personal, living faith in Jesus, who know God for themselves, who trust their lives, fortunes, families, and futures to our infallible Creator God, will be found standing firm. All those who have trusted in other humans—in dynamic speakers, in church leaders, in politicians—will, sadly, discover that they have placed their trust in the fallible.

Only God is infallible! Trust only in Him!

Testimony 40

I was brought up in a different faith and have been petrified my whole life of God. I believed that I would burn in hell for eternity. When I was 12 I started pursuing the things of this world, but for the next 45 years the Spirit was always calling me, as I knew there was a God through nature. I could see the vast sea of stars in the universe and knew there was something bigger out there. Five years ago, through a Revelation seminar, I was blessed to learn about God’s character and government.

Then I found Come and Reason Ministries and have come under some extreme pressure when I speak about the ministry. One time a member sent me an internet article titled “Whats wrong with Tim Jennings?” I asked her what she thought of it and she said “I don’t know, I didn’t read it.”

I have always wanted to find out for myself the truth about God, so I stayed with the Design Law construct and have been liberated to understand the big picture. Once we consider Design Law, all other Bible stories and prophecies seem to fit perfectly. It is truly beautiful to see people grasping how God operates this Universe of Love and the liberation it has provided in their lives. It blows my mind to see how consistent Design law is with what our founders believed. I hear statements like “This makes so much sense.”

Testimony 6

I got the book “Could It Be This Simple?” a few months ago and the reading was wonderful and I was fascinated. I lent the book to a friend at work. She is having a difficult time and the book is helping her to find Jesus and I found this very exciting. She has asked me questions and I can see her life changing.

Testimony 21

I am absolutly on fire with the message at Come and Reason! I can’t get enough! I’ve read your book, blog, and articles. I’ve listened to your Bible study podcasts, your radio show, and your series – all excellent! It wasn’t until the past couple of years that I have I like I’m becoming “healthy,” with more to share with others than just beasts and commandments! I used to be a Bible worker and preached when the pastors were gone until I had had enough. I didnt realize at the time what the problem was, but i know now… the message wasn’t properly focused. Now my flame is rekindled. All of your little examples are so perfect in explaining something “complicated” and making it easily understood! Now I’m trying to shape it into a life changing evangelistic series! Thank you!

Testimony 18

The Healing the Mind DVD set tarted me on a journey that has changed my relationship with our loving God more significantly than any other study, and brought me to your book and Bible study podcasts, which I now listen to daily, thanks to the availability of archived content on your site and on iTunes.

Testimony 70

I have been watching you for many years and have learned to love God with all my heart. I was raised by a loving Christian mother that had been lied to about who God really was, so our religious upbringing was hell fire and damnation. As soon as I was old enough and moved out, I not only left the church, I ran as fast as I could to get away from it. Sad to say, it wasn’t until the past couple of years that I learned and understand who my Father really is and how much He loves me. I understand God’s Design Laws (which make sense) and when I’m teaching my church Bible study class, I’m able to really put to use the things I’ve been learning and Holy Spirit is leading. Thank you for introducing me to my Father of true, pure love. Everyday with Him is new and exciting. One thing that breaks my heart is that I didn’t know Him sooner. God Bless you and your ministry!

Testimony 7

Ok, so last night I listened to “The Law of Liberty” and “How to Achieve Victory: Freedom, Truth and Spirtual Warfare.” These are both MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES so far! The logic is just soooooo beautiful. I had to re-listen to them a couple of times. I just want to EXPLODE! (<< we assume with joy and happiness)

Testimony 54

I had a lot of pressure, as a pastor’s kid, to conform and be “good.” I was good at being “good.” I thought my life was going along well until it all started falling apart and I could not figure out why! In my search for “why is this happening to me, God?” I came across your book, “Could it be this Simple,” and God started revealing to me the many distortions I held about His character, His principles, and how He has designed His universe to operate. I remember thinking, “Wow, I have had this all backwards.” I was happy and angry all at the same time. Happy to have the light of truth break through the darkness, revealing a wonderful, beautiful way of understanding God and His plan for His children, and angry, because I felt deceived and cheated by the church, my family, and myself!

My heart thrills when I listen to your bible study lessons. Literally I have gone from death to life. It is a journey I look forward to every day, as God reveals areas this distortion affects. Praise GOD! I will ever be grateful to God for this ministry and your cooperation with the Spirit!

Testimony 68

Your message of design law vs imperial law is so uplifting and makes so much sense- it is a game changer for me. The fact that Jesus’s death is not a big payment by an angry God is , quite frankly, a relief.

Testimony 17

The blessings of clarity and understanding you and your class inspire me to take from the word of God have impressed upon me so greatly the true, loving character of our Creator. I have found amazing freedom and joy through building a stronger, more intentional relationship with Him. What is new is that this is now a relationship built on love, reverence and respect rather than fear and obligation, and as such my eyes have been slammed OPEN as I am continually impressed by the manifestations of God’s true character in His provisions for fallen man.

Testimony 10

I personally download and listen to each of Come And Reason Ministries Bible study class lessons and PDF study notes to use when teaching my class. Really appreciate the class especially when Dr. Jennings is teaching. Thank God there are persons like him doing His work and traveling to share His beliefs.

Testimony 2

I continue to enjoy your lessons every week. The more that I research your conclusions, the more I am convinced that the Holy Spirit has lead you to distill out the essence of human redemption. Thank you for your courageous stand for the truth.

Testimony 27

Your teachings about our heavenly Father have changed my life. Thank you sooooooo very very much! I know He’s doing some serious healing in my heart and life and I look forward to each new day to learn something new about Him and to just hear you speak about Him. Thank you, forever.

Testimony 52

Your unique way in spreading the truth is what we all need today. Most of us don’t recognize the contamination coming from all the lies and selfishness in the world. Because of our fear of death, we forgot how to live. Lies left and right. I was losing hope and faith, because of so many ideas that are always contradicting each other – so many questions answered by other, more complicated, questions – until I found your channel on YouTube.

You did not just give me answers, you also taught me how to answer new questions that arise in my mind. Now I see things differently. I see God’s mercy, grace, and Love everywhere, in spite of all the chaos that we all have done as humans. I don’t fear death anymore. Accepting the Truth and Love about God is truly a genuine Freedom from all the confusions, sufferings, selfishness, pain, and death.

I just wanted to say, thank you, sooooo much for revealing the real Remedy for our infected life. I have a new hope and now see the world in a different perspective!

Testimony 28

I have been following your Bible study class for about a year now. I must say I am impressed with how your ministry has grown. I took it upon myself to listen to all your lesson podcasts from the past and they have both enriched me physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I have learnt a lot from this class. I have also noticed how the class has grown in spiritual strength. One of the things that benefited me is that now I am not afraid of God. I use to be, but now it has melted away. The second thing is that you helped me to have a real life relationship with God. Now He is my friend that was always there and I love having him with me all the time. Thirdly, because of this class, it inspired me to take over and lead a class. I have called it “Let Us Reason Together,” adapting your inquisitive style and creating a class of free thinkers.
