GOD'S FAITHFULNESS TO HIS PEOPLE .. this is the very precious theme of First Chronicles. God continues to call on us to be faithful and He strongly advises us against unfaithfulness .. God's faithfulness to us guarantees His blessings in our lives and that is why God is so passionate about faithfulness.
