1 Peter 2:6
How often we hear a man say: “There is a professing Christian who cheated me out of five dollars, and I am not going to have anything more to do with people who call themselves Christians.” But if the man had had faith in Jesus Christ you don’t suppose he would have had his faith shattered because someone cheated him out of five dollars, do you? What we want is to have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. If a man has that, he has something he can anchor to, and the anchor will hold. When the hour of temptation comes to him, and the hour of trial, the man will stand firm. If we are only converted to man, and our faith is in man, we will certainly be disappointed.
