THE DANGER OF SCRIPTURAL IGNORANCE: IT LEADS ONE TO ERRORS, TO BECOME MISTAKEN AND TO BE ELUDED FROM THE POWER OF GOD!

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION [GATHERING] of the DEAD [UNPRODUCTIVE, TASKMASTER, OBSCURED, SLOTHFUL, SLUGGARD]” Proverbs 21:16.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but THE WAY of TRANSGRESSORS [DISOBEDIENT, ARROGANT] is HARD (DIFFICULT, FRUSTRATING, CHALLENGING)” Proverbs 13:15.

Our Father God does not contain ignorance, the masterpiece of stupidity and foolishness and arrogance, especially in the midst of every opportunity to earn knowledge. Wisdom to do life and become in the grace, comes through knowledge and understanding. Playing the game of ignorance, takes no one along with God. God WINKS at ignorant people, especially when there’s every opportunity and possibility and signs indicating to ask to know and enquire the understanding to enable one excel in life and grace.

“And the times of this IGNORANCE God WINKED at [OVERLOOKED]; but now COMMANDETH all men every where to REPENT  [CHANGE]: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given ASSURANCE unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.

Jesus Christ our saviour and Lord didn’t increase in wisdom, statue and in favour with Father God and man, by a mere wish, but took early time of His humanity to sit to know and understand by being in places to ask questions and get answers to be in understanding, in order to fulfil purpose meaningfully in Father God’s BUSINESS  [ASSIGNMENT] concerning Him. And why can’t you too, seek after knowing and understanding in context the matter of life and godliness, in order to ensure an assured content in the grace. So, get out of the erroneous and mistaken path due to ignorance and get into the path of knowledge and understanding in context; in order to be fulfilled purposefully and meaningfully in the grace wherein you are called in content.

“And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, SITTING in the midst of the DOCTORS [TEACHERS], both HEARING them, and ASKING them questions. 47 And all that heard him were astonished at his UNDERSTANDING and answers. . . . 49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my FATHER’S BUSINESS? 50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them . . . 52 And Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM and STATURE, and in FAVOUR with God and man” Luke 2: 46-52.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for GOOD to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/Ephesians 1:11-12; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10].

Avoid ignorance by every means. It’s dangerous and the sides effects and consequences it’s unimaginable. Ensure in every subject you endeavour to know and understand the context and possibly contents in order to avoid – erroneous position, become mistaken and misconstrued, and eluded from the power of God – meaning, the enabling of God’s grace for such context to be made revealing and manifesting for your good and BLESSEDNESS.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR [ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY], NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES, NOR THE POWER OF GOD” Matthew 22:29.

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore ERR [ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY], because ye KNOW NOT THE SCRIPTURES, neither THE POWER OF GOD?” Mark 12:24.

Ignorance hurts and hunts. It makes one stupid and foolish. It frustrates one’s efforts. It keeps one away from the good of God – for God winks at ignorance. Ignorance subjugates. It enslaves. It captivates. It’s destructive. The sides effects it’s innumerable and unimaginable and never a wish for any – therefore don’t even imagine it or allow it plays around you and within your domain at any given moment. PURSUE to ENSURE knowledge and understanding always in order to stay safe.

“A WISE man is STRONG; yea, a man of KNOWLEDGE INCREASETH STRENGTH” Proverbs 24:5.

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

For God is FAITHFUL and rewarding Father God, who cherished achieving and accomplishing anything through process which is a consequence of knowledge and understanding. For wisdom to succeed in excellence is the application of knowledge, unlike ignorance whose effects it’s to be slothful [sluggard] and unproductive. For whatever has no process of accomplishments is a fraud and a scam in context and content. God wants you to be a follower of Him and those who do life and godliness, through knowledge and understanding of the scriptural context to ensure an assured content.

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS [UNGRATEFUL, UNFAITHFUL] to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the FULL ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be NOT SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through faith and patience INHERIT [ACCOMPLISH, ACHIEVE] the promises” Hebrews 6:10-12.

“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

IT PAYS TO PATIENTLY STRIFE FOR KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING THAN TO STAY IN IGNORANCE WITH ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS OF STUPIDITY AND FOOLISHNESS, SLOTHFULNESS AND SLUGGISHNESS THAT IT BRINGS – UNPRODUCTIVE IN CONTEXT AND CONTENT.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE [UN-EASE] place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts. For by IGNORANCE many talents, vision and dreams that would have enhance life and godly living in uplifting and placing people and persons’ in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, has landed and ended such in the GRAVEYARDS – unfulfilled, unsung, unproductive, unwritten, unaccomplished and such like.

Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK [REFLECT]!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR [ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY], NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES, NOR THE POWER OF GOD” Matthew 22:29.

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore ERR [ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY], because ye KNOW NOT THE SCRIPTURES, neither THE POWER OF GOD?” Mark 12:24.

“And the times of this IGNORANCE God WINKED at [OVERLOOKED]; but now COMMANDETH all men every where to REPENT  [CHANGE]: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given ASSURANCE unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: AND HIS COMMANDMENTS ARE NOT GRIEVOUS [DIFFICULT, TASKMASTER, BURDENSOME, IRKSOME]” 1 John 5:3 Emphasis Mine.

“And now, BRETHREN, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is ABLE to BUILD you up, and to give you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED [UNIQUELY SET APART]” Acts 20:32.

“MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also REJECT thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast FORGOTTEN the law of thy God, I will also FORGET thy children” Hosea 4:6.

“Therefore, MY PEOPLE ARE GONE INTO CAPTIVITY, BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE: and their HONOURABLE men are FAMISHED, and their MULTITUDE dried up with thirst. 14 Therefore HELL hath ENLARGED herself and OPENED her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. 15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: 16 but the Lord of hosts shall be EXALTED in judgment, and God that is holy shall be SANCTIFIED in righteousness” Isaiah 5:13-16.

TO AVOID WALKING IN ERROR: KNOW THE SCRIPTURES FOR YOURSELF

By Leave a Comment

TO AVOID WALKING IN ERROR: KNOW THE SCRIPTURES FOR YOURSELF!

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

There’s nothing as dangerous as living in error, being mistaken and taken up as  PREY, and becoming the VICTIM of the ENEMY, and COHORTS, because of one’s knowing or unknowing shade of ignorance, stupidity, foolishness, and vulnerability.

“Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a CONTROVERSY with the inhabitants of the land, because there is NO TRUTH, nor MERCY, nor KNOWLEDGE of God in the land . . . 6 My PEOPLE are DESTROYED for LACK of KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:1, 6.

“Therefore my PEOPLE are gone into CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst . . . ” Isaiah 5:11-16.

There’s danger in not being properly informed in the KNOW-HOW and UNDER-STANDING of the context of a thing; it will otherwise expose you to danger and become vulnerable to all manners of deception, adulteration, delusion, counterfeits, falsehoods and many such like that are out there – who are knowingly and unknowingly appearing as wolves in sheep’s clothing, like roaring lions and manifesting as angels of light when in reality are angels of darkness and others as Ministers of God while they are under the enclave of Sayan and cohorts in camouflage to deceive the ignorant. Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Timothy 1:3-11; Jude 1:3-4; Matthew 7:15; 1 Peter 5:8-11; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15.

It’s imperative, for you to come to terms with the reality of the world about you toward God’s Word to avoid walking in error. You need to INTENTIONALLY  and PRAGMATICALLY resolve to KNOW the SCRIPTURES for YOURSELF – to enable you to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus’ stead. That’s the place of honour, dignity and nobility that was found in the believers of Berea in Acts 17:19-13.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is ABLE to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

“Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a CONTROVERSY with the inhabitants of the land, because there is NO TRUTH, nor MERCY, nor KNOWLEDGE of God in the land . . . 6 My PEOPLE are DESTROYED for LACK of KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:1, 6.

“Therefore my PEOPLE are gone into CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst . . . ” Isaiah 5:11-16.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth NOT to be ASHAMED, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast LEARNED them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy scriptures, which are ABLE TO MAKE thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT, throughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which BELIEVED on him, If ye CONTINUE IN MY WORD, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 and ye shall KNOW the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE” John 8:31-32.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED the word with all READINESS of mind, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES DAILY, whether those things were so. 12 Therefore many of them believed; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

By Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING THE ESSENCE!
 
ESSENCE is the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something abstract, which determines its character. Hence the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of the ESSENCE of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY”, is of the same imperative if we are to appropriate into reality our rights and privileges in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“The FEAR (REVERENTIAL FEAR) of the Lord is the beginning of WISDOM: and the KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY is understanding” Proverbs 9:10 (Emphasis Mine).
 
For I am yet to find one Believer in Christ Jesus, who does not wants to ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE to see that everything about their Faith in Christ Jesus, is TANGIBLE, REACHABLE and LIVEABLE.
Unfortunately not all are experiencing the FULLNESS of Christ Jesus stead in their day to day living, as expected IN THE GRACE wherein we STAND as in the Holy Writ.
 
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and REJOICE IN HOPE of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.
 
In ESSENCE, actualising our REDEMPTION REALITY in Christ Jesus, can only be made possible through firstly – KNOWLEDGE – that is, by the ACKNOWLEDGING; and secondly it’s with the UNDERSTANDING of one’s FAITH in Christ Jesus – being COMMUNICATED to matters of Life and Godly Living as it’s written in the Holy Writ:
 
“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).
 
And until you can ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE the ESSENCE of REDEMPTION of Christ Jesus in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ Jesus will always be a – struggle, strange, burdensome, irksome and taskmaster like. It’s for this lack of the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” that there are many MERE – ‘AMEN’, HALLELUJAH’ ‘I RECEIVE’ and ‘BLESS ME’ – Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ. This OUGHT not to be so in Christ Jesus and for all that Christ Jesus is to us in God.
 
I am emboldened to say that you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a personal knowledge and understanding, of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in your redemption in Christ Jesus, of all that God has – DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and He’s DOING THROUGH YOU, supposedly and indeed.
 
Here are few ESSENCE to enable you see a gracious reasons to earnestly crave and seek for THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY through ACKNOWLEDGING and UNDERSTANDING of all that God deed for you in Christ Jesus; this is to help you APPROPRIATE and ENACT with ease your REDEMPTION into reality and as a POSSESSION. It is the KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING of these but not limited craving is what I want you to explore:
 
That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the KNOWLEDGE of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.
That KNOWLEDGE will deliver from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29.
That your dominion in life is a product of your KNOWLEDGE – Daniel 11:32.
That a man’s value for KNOWLEDGE determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.
That the grace that determines our status is a function of KNOWLEDGE – 2 Peter 1:2.
That when you run after KNOWLEDGE, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.
That People who hate KNOWLEDGE can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.
That age is not equal to KNOWLEDGE, and should not be taken for KNOWLEDGE – Job. 32:7-9.
That if your THOUGHTS are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.
That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.
That whatever KNOWLEDGE you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.
That studying for KNOWLEDGE is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.
That the only authentic proof of KNOWLEDGE is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.
That when you don’t grow in the spirit of KNOWLEDGE, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.
That those who seek to KNOW men, don’t know God; when you seek to KNOW God, people will seek to KNOW you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.
That your KNOWLEDGE of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.
And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured KNOWLEDGE – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.
 
These writ above though not limited, indicate the essence of KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of
“THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in order to access the FULNESS of Him. Hence I say, Don’t SETTLE and BECOME a believer in Christ Jesus, who is envelope just with – ‘BLESS ME’, ‘HALLELUJAH’, ‘I RECEIVE’, ‘AMEN’ and such like – seek after KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY ONE” for your ESSENCE and FULNESS.
 
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS” Obadiah 1:17.
 
“The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7 turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. 8 Behold, I have set the land before you: GO in and POSSESS the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them” Deuteronomy 1:6-8.

TO AVOID WALKING IN ERROR: KNOW THE SCRIPTURES FOR YOURSELF!

TO AVOID WALKING IN ERROR: KNOW THE SCRIPTURES FOR YOURSELF!

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

There’s nothing as dangerous as living in errors, being mistaken and taken up as a PREY, and becoming the VICTIM of the ENEMY, and COHORTS, because of one’s knowingly or unknowingly shade of ignorance, stupidity, foolishness, and vulnerability.

“Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a CONTROVERSY with the inhabitants of the land, because there is NO TRUTH, nor MERCY, nor KNOWLEDGE of God in the land . . . 6 My PEOPLE are DESTROYED for LACK of KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:1, 6.

“Therefore my PEOPLE are gone into CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst . . . “ Isaiah 5:11-16.

There’s danger in not being properly informed in the KNOW-HOW and UNDER-STANDING of the context of a thing will otherwise expose you to danger and become vulnerable to all manners of deceptions, adulteration, delusions, counterfeits, falsehoods and many such like that are out there – who are knowingly and unknowingly appearing as wolves in sheep’s clothing, like roaring lion and manifesting as angels of light when in reality are angels of darkness and others as Minister’s of God while there are under the enclave of satan and cohorts in camouflage to deceive the ignorant. Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Timothy 1:3-11; Jude 1:3-4; Matthew 7:15; 1 Peter 5:8-11; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15.

It’s imperative, for you to come to terms with the reality of the world about you toward God’s Word to avoid walking in error. You need to INTENTIONALLY  and PRAGMATICALLY resolve to KNOW the SCRIPTURES for YOURSELF – to enable you to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus’ stead. That’s the place of honour, dignity and nobility that was found in the believers of Berea in Acts 17:19-13.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is ABLE to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

“Therefore my PEOPLE are gone into CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst . . . ” Isaiah 5:11-16.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth NOT to be ASHAMED, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast LEARNED them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy scriptures, which are ABLE TO MAKE thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT, throughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which BELIEVED on him, If ye CONTINUE IN MY WORD, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 and ye shall KNOW the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE” John 8:31-32.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED the word with all READINESS of mind, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES DAILY, whether those things were so. 12 Therefore many of them believed; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

By Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING THE ESSENCE!

ESSENCE is the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something abstract, which determines its character. Hence the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of the ESSENCE of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY”, is of the same imperative if we are to appropriate into reality our rights and privileges in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“The FEAR (REVERENTIAL FEAR) of the Lord is the beginning of WISDOM: and the KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY is understanding” Proverbs 9:10 (Emphasis Mine).

For I am yet to find one Believer in Christ Jesus, who does not wants to ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE to see that everything about their Faith in Christ Jesus, is TANGIBLE, REACHABLE and LIVEABLE. Unfortunately not all are experiencing the FULLNESS of Christ Jesus stead in their day to day living, as expected IN THE GRACE wherein we STAND as in the Holy Writ.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and REJOICE IN HOPE of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

In ESSENCE, actualising our REDEMPTION REALITY in Christ Jesus, can only be made possible through firstly – KNOWLEDGE – that is, by the ACKNOWLEDGING; and secondly it’s with the UNDERSTANDING of one’s FAITH in Christ Jesus – being COMMUNICATED to matters of Life and Godly Living as it’s written in the Holy Writ:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).

And until you can ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE the ESSENCE of REDEMPTION of Christ Jesus in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ Jesus will always be a – struggle, strange, burdensome, irksome and taskmaster like. It’s for this lack of the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” that there are many MERE – ‘AMEN’, HALLELUJAH’ ‘I RECEIVE’ and ‘BLESS ME’ – Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ. This OUGHT not to be so in Christ Jesus and for all that Christ Jesus is to us in God.

I am emboldened to say that you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a personal knowledge and understanding, of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in your redemption in Christ Jesus, of all that God has – DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and He’s DOING THROUGH YOU, supposedly and indeed.

Here are few ESSENCE to enable you see a gracious reasons to earnestly crave and seek for THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY through ACKNOWLEDGING and UNDERSTANDING of all that God deed for you in Christ Jesus; this is to help you APPROPRIATE and ENACT with ease your REDEMPTION into reality and as a POSSESSION. It is the KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING of these but not limited craving is what I want you to explore:

** That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the KNOWLEDGE of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

** That KNOWLEDGE will deliver from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29

** That your dominion in life is a product of your KNOWLEDGE – Daniel 11:32.

** That a man’s value for KNOWLEDGE determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.

** That the grace that determines our status is a function of KNOWLEDGE – 2 Peter 1:2.

** That when you run after KNOWLEDGE, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.

** That People who hate KNOWLEDGE can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

** That age is not equal to KNOWLEDGE, and should not be taken for KNOWLEDGE – Job. 32:7-9.

** That if your THOUGHTS are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.

** That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.

** That whatever KNOWLEDGE you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.

** That studying for KNOWLEDGE is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.

** That the only authentic proof of KNOWLEDGE is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.

** That when you don’t grow in the spirit of KNOWLEDGE, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.

** That those who seek to KNOW men, don’t know God; when you seek to KNOW God, people will seek to KNOW you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.

** That your KNOWLEDGE of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.

** And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured KNOWLEDGE – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

These writ above though not limited, indicate the essence of KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in order to access the FULNESS of Him. Hence I say, Don’t SETTLE and BECOME a believer in Christ Jesus, who is envelope just with – ‘BLESS ME’, ‘HALLELUJAH’, ‘I RECEIVE’, ‘AMEN’ and such like – seek after KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY ONE” for your ESSENCE and FULNESS.

SCRIPTURAL IGNORANCE

By Leave a Comment

SCRIPTURAL IGNORANCE: LEADS ONE TO ERRORS, TO BECOME MISTAKEN AND TO BE ELUDED FROM THE POWER OF GOD!

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION (GATHERING) of the DEAD (UNPRODUCTIVE, TASKMASTER, OBSCURED, SLOTHFUL, SLUGGARD)” Proverbs 21:16.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but THE WAY of TRANSGRESSORS (DISOBEDIENT) is HARD (DIFFICULT, FRUSTRATING, CHALLENGING)” Proverbs 13:15

Avoid ignorance by every means. It’s sides effects and consequences it’s unimaginable. Ensure in every subject you endeavour to know and understand the context and possibly contents in order to avoid – erroneous position, become mistaken and misconstrued, and eluded from the power of God – meaning, the enabling of God’s grace for such context to be made revealing and manifesting for your good and BLESSEDNESS.

Ignorance hurts and hunts. It makes one stupid and foolish. It frustrates one’s efforts. It keeps one away from the good of God – for God winks at ignorance. Ignorance subjugates. It enslaves. It captivates. It’s destructive. The sides effects it’s innumerable and unimaginable and never a wish for any –  therefore don’t even imagine it or allow it plays around you and within your domain at any given moment. PURSUE to ENSURE knowledge and understanding always in order to to stay safe.

IT PAYS TO PATIENTLY STRIFE FOR KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING THAN TO STAY IN IGNORANCE WITH ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS OF STUPIDITY AND FOOLISHNESS THAT IT BRINGS.

“A WISE man is STRONG; yea, a man of KNOWLEDGE INCREASETH STRENGTH” Proverbs 24:5.

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts. For by IGNORANCE many talents, vision and dreams that would have enhance life and godly living in uplifting and placing people and person’s in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, has landed and ended such in the GRAVEYARDS – unfulfilled, unsung, unwritten, unaccomplished and such like.

Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK (REFLECT)!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (ERRONEOUS, MISTAKEN), NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES, NOR THE POWER OF GOD” Matthew 22:29.

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore ERR (ERRONEOUS, MISTAKEN), because ye KNOW NOT THE SCRIPTURES, neither THE POWER OF GOD?” Mark 12:24.

“And the times of this IGNORANCE God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: AND HIS COMMANDMENTS ARE NOT GRIEVOUS (DIFFICULT, TASKMASTER, BURDENSOME, IRKSOME)” 1 John 5:3 Emphasis Mine.
