The Trustworthiness of God’s Words
Why the Reliability of Every Word from God Matters
Layton Talbert
Biblical evidence that God keeps his word
We can know that everything he says is true
Putting this trust into action
This is a book about God’s jealousy for his integrity, his passion to be believed, on the basis of his words alone. Throughout Scripture God expresses his determination to be known as the God who keeps his words. He has resolved that every person and nation will see and confess that all his words are reliable down to every last syllable, jot, and tittle. Learning to trust a God who is sovereign and in control, especially in the ache and throb of life, means hanging on to the conviction that everything he says is utterly dependable.

Layton Talbert explains clearly, and in an engaging way, that if we do believe what God says, we bring glory to Him; and we enjoy the confidence in his sovereignty that enables us to ‘laugh at the days to come’ (Proverbs 31:25).

Written in a very accessible style with helpful practical applications, this book (which includes an outstanding summary of the Kingdom of God on earth for worldview context), ought to be in the library of every Christian and re–read at least annually.
Craig Hartman
Director of Shalom Ministries Author of Through Jewish Eyes
… a very useful work which is not a conventional defence of the complete trustworthiness of God’s Words encapsulated in Scripture, but more of a series of applications for believers. The book rests on the foundation that God’s word is true, and is to be trusted, and that faith is intellectual, emotional and volitional.
Peter Barnes

… he meticulously shows from Scripture itself that God is true to his word, and that great blessings and comfort come to those who trust him. Deeply biblical and thoroughly pastoral, this book is a must–read for every Christian.
