The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple
LESSON
The revealed Word of God has the same dominant influence over humankind as the sun does over nature. Whereas the sun restores natural life, God’s law restores the life of the human soul. The sun dispels physical darkness, but the Word of God removes the darkness of ignorance from
our understanding. It is flawless and reliable.
Trees are known by their fruit, and books by their effect upon the mind. By the “law of the Lord” David means the whole revelation of God, so far as it had been given in his day. It is equally true of all revelation since. We may judge by its effects upon our own selves.
Memory Verse: John 17:17
