Chapter 27: In the Hope of Resurrection, Let's Stick with the All-Powerful and All-Knowing God

Having this hope, let our souls be bound to Him who is faithful in His promises and just in His judgments. He who has commanded us not to lie will much more not lie Himself, for nothing is impossible with God, except to lie. Let His faith therefore be stirred up within us, and let us consider that all things are near to Him. By the word of His might, He established all things, and by His word, He can overthrow them. "Who shall say to Him, What have you done? or, Who shall resist the power of His strength?" As He pleases, He will do all things, and none of the things determined by Him shall pass away. All things are open before Him, and nothing can be hidden from His counsel. "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day to day utters speech, and night to night shows knowledge. And there are no words or speeches of which the voices are not heard."
