"The sum of your word is truth; and everyone of your righteous ordinances endures forever."
As I look upon and look through the Scripture that has been given to us by God, this statement from verse 160 in Psalm 119 rings absolutely true. The sum of God's word is truth. Also, the sum of God's word is the Word - the Word made flesh in the person of Jesus Christ the Son of the Father. All of scripture in the end points towards the truth of the Word to Jesus and what he has done for us and what he is STILL doing for us. This is the truth that brings life that endures forever. For God in Jesus Christ said, "I am with you for all ages into eternity. I have come to bring light, life and the truth that God loves you deeply and enduringly." That doesn't mean that God's Law drifts away. God does not want us to keep on in a life of sin turning away from God on a continual basis. We stand in the truth of God's Law, and Christ shows us that God still loves and cares for us deeply. That is an ordinance that has made that will endure forever.
