Thank you so very much for all of your insights and especially, for those beautiful Scriptures!

I believe the Scriptures.

Truly, it always seems to turn on the question "Who do you believe?"

I also believe God. I love Him and I trust Him.

Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: [are they] not in thy book?

When I cry [unto thee], then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God [is] for me.

In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his] word.

In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

Thy vows [are] upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee. For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [wilt] not [thou deliver] my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living? - Psalms 56:8-13

To God be the glory!

AMEN!

And on the "knowing" whom we believe.

Gnosticism is a belief in the knowledge itself; as if knowledge alone were the cause of some desired result.

Christian confidence is in God alone who brings us to the true knowledge of Himself and our place within His creation.

It's all about the source.
