We need to persevere in it trusting the sovereign Creator of the universe to act in his time. Just as he
spoke the universe into existence with his powerful words, he speaks into dark, deceived hearts as the gospel is proclaimed. If you're a Christian this is what he has done to you.
“'For God, who said, Let light shine out of darkness,' has shone in our hearts to gi...

What this means is that if you hold fast to what you
heard from the beginning, (v.24) you have been inoculated against heresy. As we abide in Christ and his
