What Does 2 Corinthians 1:19 Mean?
Paul moves from his own faithfulness to its source: the very message he preached. The Son of God, Jesus Christ, proclaimed among them 'by me and Silvanus and Timotheus,' 'was not yea and nay.' In Christ there is no wavering — 'in him was yea,' the unwavering affirmation of God.
The reason Paul's word is steady is that Christ Himself is steady. Jesus is not a maybe but a yes — the sure and faithful Son in whom God's purposes are settled and certain. Every promise of salvation finds its solid ground in Him. To know Christ is to encounter the faithfulness of God in person, the One who does not change and whose word never fails those who trust Him.
