                   On the Faithfulness of God, Pt. 2
                   ---------------------------------
                         by Arthur W. Pink

What a word is that in Psa. 36:5, "Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens;
and Thy faithfulness unto the clouds."  Far above all finite comprehension
is the unchanging faithfulness of God.  Everything about God is great,
vast, imcomparable.  He never forgets, never fails, never falters, never
forfeits His word.  To every declaration of promise or prophecy the Lord
has exactly adhered, every engagement of covenant or threatening He will
make good, for "God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son
of man, that He should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it?
or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?"  (Num. 23:19)  There-
fore does the believer exclaim, "His compassions fail not, they are
new every morning: great is Thy faithfulness" (Lam. 3:22,23).

                taken from "The Attributes of God", by Arthur W. Pink.
                The book covers many of the LORD's attributes, such as
                His Holiness, Knowledge, Power, Love, and Patience.
