THE DANGER OF SCRIPTURAL IGNORANCE:

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.

AVOID BEING MISTAKEN

AVOID BEING MISTAKEN: READ TO KNOW THE SCRIPTURES TO AVOID BEING MISTAKEN AND BE FOUND IN AN ERRONEOUS CAPTIVITY!

“Till I come, GIVE ATTENDANCE TO READING, to exhortation, to doctrine” 1 Timothy 4:13.

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29/Emphasis mine.

You are mistaken, walking in error and powerless because you simply RUN before you READ; hence READ first if you must RUN to achieve, succeed, triumph and such like more, in that purposeful visioned concept for your meaningful result of God in Christ Jesus stead. For READING keeps you INFORMED. And INFORMED people make INFORMED DECISIONS and not mere guesses or guessing decisions. And INFORMED DECISIONS makes INFORMED LIVING in LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

READ BEFORE YOU RUN – DON’T PUT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE. YOU WILL EXERT UNNECESSARY EFFORTS TO NO WHERE – FOR WISDOM IS ONLY PROFITABLE TO DIRECT THROUGH KNOWLEDGE

“If the IRON be BLUNT, and he DO NOT WHET the edge, then must he PUT TO MORE STRENGTH: but WISDOM is PROFITABLE to direct”  Ecclesiastes 10:10.

“If the AXE is DULL and he DOES NOT SHARPEN its edge, then he must EXERT more strength; but WISDOM [to sharpen the axe] helps him SUCCEED [with less effort]” Ecclesiastes 10:10/AMP.

Don’t blame others for your poor prescription order in the principle of doing life in Christ Jesus stead if you don’t read before you run. For wisdom is the application of knowledge and knowledge is as result of the pure SCRIPTURAL TRUTH that one had been informed to contain.

YOU ARE EITHER RESPONDING OR REACTING – KNOWLEDGE WILL MAKE ONE RESPOND TO LIFE MATTERS BY THE WORD WHILE IGNORANCE MAKES ONE REACT TO LIFE MATTERS BECAUSE THERE’S NO WORD.

And a NO WORD means a NO FAITH. For FAITH comes by the WORD – [Romans 10:17]. And by FAITH we do life with God to overcome in humanity. [1 John 5:4-5; Habakkuk 2:4 (Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:17)]. And by not doing life by FAITH is Sin – [Romans 14:23]. And without doing life by FAITH it’s possible to PLEASE God – [Hebrews 11:1-3, 6]. Thus, it indicates why it’s important and imperative to ensure and be assured of the knowledge and understanding of the WORD of God in every context application, to necessitate and  ascertain the WISDOM for any to succeed with God in Christ Jesus stead.

BELOVED, AVOID BEING MISTAKEN – READ TO KNOW THE SCRIPTURES IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING MISTAKEN AND BE FOUND IN AN ERRONEOUS CAPTIVITY – AND SOMETIMES IRREVERSIBLE BONDAGES

Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“. . . . 13 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” Isaiah 5:11-15.

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the ACKNOWLEDGING OF EVERY GOOD THING WHICH IS IN YOU IN CHRIST JESUS” Philemon 1:6.

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

ENDEAVOUR TO BE A READER

ENDEAVOUR TO BE A READER: IT EMANCIPATES, GIVES FREEDOM AND TRIUMPH IN THE GRACE!

“Let no man DESPISE thy youth; but be thou an EXAMPLE of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 13 Till I come, give ATTENDANCE to READING, to exhortation, to doctrine” 1 Timothy 4:12-13.

Stop playing dice with your life – endeavour to be a READER, it emancipates, gives FREEDOM and TRIUMPH and SAVES you from ERRORS and being MISTAKEN in the grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

The TRIUMPHANT Church [which is you that God is building in Christ Jesus stead] is an INFORMED Church – Make it COUNT and ACCOUNT for your good in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. For ignorance of the Scriptures and scriptural truth in context breeds falsehoods, counterfeit, distortion, dogmas, perversions, religious sectarianism, adulteration and such like more.

Jesus will ANSWER most times His enquirers in this wise: ‘HAVE YOU READ’ or HAVE YOU NOT READ’ and ‘WHAT HAVE YOU READ’ [Matthew 12:3, 5; Matthew 19:4; Matthew 22:31] . In other words, the QUEST or ENQUIRY they sought an ANSWER are already available and made plain if only they are taking [or have taken] time to READ. Stupid quests are birthed and breeds from ignorance and perversion and distortion and adulteration.

And it’s difficult and cumbersome to READ and get an ANSWER to DIRE NEED when you are in crises or mess or bad circumstances. That’s the reason you need to READ and start READING again ahead of lifetime challenges. Otherwise, you might end up with PERVERSIONS or PERVERTED ANSWERS. There’s already an ANSWER and direction to take for a wholesome solution to that dire needs you are worrying or depressed about or may likely encounter in time to come. READ, I genuinely RECOMMEND as Jesus told His enquirers.

Therefore, to stop complaining, blame gaming, walking in ERRORS and being MISTAKEN, why not start Reading the Holy Scriptures afresh today and or likely Books that answers to the dire needs and quests in your life. For freedom can only apply with ease, where knowledge and understanding rules. And true TRIUMPH and FREEDOM are birthed from KNOWLEDGE, otherwise it’s PERVERTS.

Be BLESSED – Be Empowered to Succeed, Thrive, Achieve, Triumph and Become – as you make a refreshing starts ups to READ; for the TRIUMPHANT Church [you] in Christ Jesus is an INFORMED Church – Make it COUNT and ACCOUNT for your good in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Let no man DESPISE thy youth; but be thou an EXAMPLE of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 13 Till I come, give ATTENDANCE to READING, to exhortation, to doctrine” 1 Timothy 4:12-13.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

“But Jesus said, “Your error is caused by your ignorance of the Scriptures and of God’s power!” Matthew 22:29 (Living Bible).

“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are MISTAKEN, not KNOWING the Scriptures nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29 (NKJV).

TO BE FREE FROM BEING MISTAKEN AND IN ERRORS OF SCRIPTURAL CONTEXTS

By Leave a Comment

TO BE FREE FROM BEING MISTAKEN AND IN ERRORS OF SCRIPTURAL CONTEXTS: YOU NEED TO GROW AND BE GROWING IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORD IN THE GRACE!

“. . . 18 But GROW [spiritually mature] in the GRACE and KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory [honor, majesty, splendor], both now and to the day of eternity. Amen” 2 Peter 3:14-18 (Amplified).

There’s the NEED to intentionally GROW graciously in a DIDACTIC order of SCRIPTURAL KNOWLEDGE, if you MUST be FREE from SCRIPTURAL ERRORS and not being MISTAKENLY and TWISTED, to save you from that error and erroneous position, which leads to captivity and bondage.

“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 . . .” Isaiah 5:13-15.

TWO OF MANY EXAMPLES ARE THESE:

** The caution and charge of Jesus Christ to the Sadducees, while on His earthly ministry –  He told the Sadducees of their being Scripturally wrong, twisted, distorted, and adulterated; more so, are in errors and being mistakenly in their analysis and conclusions of scriptural context and text matters; and all these analysis of the Sadducees, are simply because of their IGNORANCE [LACK OF KNOWLEDGE], making them a NEVER to be able to experience the knowledgeable POWER of God.

“. . . 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR [MISTAKENLY], not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God . . .” Matthew 22:23-33.

** And also of Apostle Peter who consciously caution and charge those followers of his in their twist, errors and mistaken intent as regards Apostle Paul’s writings – which many have misconstrued in their UNDERSTANDING and INTERPRETATION.

“. . . 18 but GROW [spiritually mature] in the GRACE and KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory [honor, majesty, splendor], both now and to the day of eternity. Amen” 2 Peter 3:14-18 [Amplified].

So, I commend you to God and to His enabling grace and His WORD, that’s able to build you up, set you free from scriptural context errors and to give you an inheritance among all who are sanctified [set apart], for God’s meaningful purpose and glory in Christ Jesus stead as written:

“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.

Blessed regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“So, beloved, since you are looking forward to these things, be DILIGENT AND MAKE EVERY EFFORT to be found by Him [at His return] spotless and blameless, in peace [that is, inwardly calm with a sense of spiritual well-being and confidence, having lived a life of obedience to Him]. 15 And consider the patience of our Lord [His delay in judging and avenging wrongs] as salvation [that is, allowing time for more to be saved]; just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him [by God], 16 speaking about these things as he does in all of his letters. IN WHICH THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND, which the UNTAUGHT and UNSTABLE [who have fallen into error] TWIST and MISINTERPRET, JUST AS THEY DO THE REST OF THE SCRIPTURES, TO THEIR OWN DESTRUCTION. 17 Therefore, [let me warn you] beloved, knowing these things beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the ERROR of unprincipled men [who distort doctrine] and fall from your own steadfastness [of mind, knowledge, truth, and faith], 18 but GROW [spiritually mature] in the grace and KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory (honor, majesty, splendor), both now and to the day of eternity. Amen” 2 Peter 3:14-18 (Amplified).

“As he spake these words, many BELIEVED on him. 31 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 8:30-32.

“Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are DULL OF HEARING. 12 For when for the time ye OUGHT to be TEACHERS, ye have need that one TEACH you again which be the FIRST PRINCIPLES of the oracles of God; and are become such as have NEED OF MILK, and NOT OF STRONG [MATURED] MEAT [SPIRITUAL FOOD]. 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong [MATURE] MEAT [SPIRITUAL FOOD] belongeth to them that are of FULL AGE [MATURED], even those who by reason of use have their SENSES exercised to DISCERN both GOOD and EVIL” Hebrews 5:11-14/Emphasis Mine.

“Wherefore LAYING ASIDE all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, 2 as NEWBORN BABES, DESIRE THE SINCERE MILK OF THE WORD, THAT YE MAY GROW THEREBY: 3 if so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. 4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, 5 ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ” 1 Peter 2:1-4.

“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 [MATURED, COMPLETE, WHOLE], throughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth NOT TO BE ASHAMED, rightly DIVIDING [APPLYING] THE WORD of TRUTH” 2 Timothy 2:15/Emphasis Mine.

“And the TIMES of this IGNORANCE God WINKED AT [OVERLOOKED]; 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/Emphasis Mine.

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.

“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.

AVOID BEING MISTAKEN

AVOID BEING MISTAKEN: READ TO KNOW THE SCRIPTURES TO AVOID BEING MISTAKEN AND BE FOUND IN AN ERRONEOUS CAPTIVITY!

“Till I come, GIVE ATTENDANCE TO READING, to exhortation, to doctrine” 1 Timothy 4:13.

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29/Emphasis mine.

You are mistaken, walking in error and powerless because you simply RUN before you READ; hence READ first if you must RUN to achieve, succeed, triumph and such like more, in that purposeful visioned concept for your meaningful result of God in Christ Jesus stead. For READING keeps you INFORMED. And INFORMED people makes INFORMED DECISIONS and not in a mere guesses or guessing decisions. And INFORMED DECISIONS makes INFORMED LIVING in LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

READ BEFORE YOU RUN – DON’T PUT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE. YOU WILL EXERT UNNECESSARY EFFORTS TO NO WHERE – FOR WISDOM IS ONLY PROFITABLE TO DIRECT THROUGH KNOWLEDGE

“If the IRON be BLUNT, and he DO NOT WHET the edge, then must he PUT TO MORE STRENGTH: but WISDOM is PROFITABLE to direct” Ecclesiastes 10:10.

“If the AXE is DULL and he DOES NOT SHARPEN its edge, then he must EXERT more strength; but WISDOM [to sharpen the axe] helps him SUCCEED [with less effort]” Ecclesiastes 10:10/AMP.

Don’t blame others for your poor prescription order in the principle of doing life in Christ Jesus stead if you don’t read before you run. For wisdom is the application of knowledge and knowledge is as result of the pure SCRIPTURAL TRUTH that one had been informed to contain.

YOU ARE EITHER RESPONDING OR REACTING – KNOWLEDGE WILL MAKE ONE RESPOND TO LIFE MATTERS BY THE WORD WHILE IGNORANCE MAKES ONE REACT TO LIFE MATTERS BECAUSE THERE’S NO WORD.

And a NO WORD means a NO FAITH. For FAITH comes by the WORD – [Romans 10:17]. And by FAITH we do life with God to overcome in humanity. [1 John 5:4-5; Habakkuk 2:4 (Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:17)]. And by not doing life by FAITH is Sin – [Romans 14:23]. And without doing life by FAITH it’s possible to PLEASE God – [Hebrews 11:1-3, 6]. Thus, it indicates why it’s important and imperative to ensure and be assured of the knowledge and understanding of the WORD of God in every context application, to necessitates and  ascertain the WISDOM for any to succeed with God in Christ Jesus stead.

BELOVED, AVOID BEING MISTAKEN – READ TO KNOW THE SCRIPTURES IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING MISTAKEN AND BE FOUND IN AN ERRONEOUS CAPTIVITY – AND SOMETIMES IRREVERSIBLE BONDAGES

Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“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.

“. . . . 13 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” Isaiah 5:11-15.

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the ACKNOWLEDGING OF EVERY GOOD THING WHICH IS IN YOU IN CHRIST JESUS” Philemon 1:6.

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

TO BE FREE FROM SCRIPTURAL ERRORS

By Leave a Comment

TO BE FREE FROM SCRIPTURAL ERRORS: GROW IN GRACE!

“But GROW [spiritually mature] in the grace and KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory (honor, majesty, splendor), both now and to the day of eternity. Amen” 2 Peter 3:14-18 (Amplified).

There’s the NEED to intentionally GROW graciously in a DIDACTIC order of SCRIPTURAL KNOWLEDGE, if you MUST be FREE from SCRIPTURAL ERRORS and not being MISTAKENLY and TWISTED, to save you from that error and erroneous position, which leads to captivity and bondage.

“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 . . .” Isaiah 5:13-15.

TWO OF MANY EXAMPLES ARE THESE:

** The caution and charge of Jesus Christ to the Sadducees, while on His earthly ministry –  He told the Sadducees of their being Scripturally twisted, in errors and being mistakenly in their analysis and conclusions of matters – and all these are simply because of their ignorance [lack of knowledge], making them a NEVER to be able to experience the knowledgeable POWER of God. Matthew 22:29.

** And also of Apostle Peter who consciously caution and charge those followers of his in their twist, errors and mistaken intent as regards Apostle Paul’s writings – which many have misconstrued in their UNDERSTANDING and INTERPRETATION. 2 Peter 3:14-18.

SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the power of God . . .” Matthew 22:23-33.

“So, beloved, since you are looking forward to these things, be DILIGENT AND MAKE EVERY EFFORT to be found by Him [at His return] spotless and blameless, in peace [that is, inwardly calm with a sense of spiritual well-being and confidence, having lived a life of obedience to Him]. 15 And consider the patience of our Lord [His delay in judging and avenging wrongs] as salvation [that is, allowing time for more to be saved]; just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him [by God], 16 speaking about these things as he does in all of his letters. IN WHICH THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND, which the UNTAUGHT and UNSTABLE [who have fallen into error] TWIST and MISINTERPRET, JUST AS THEY DO THE REST OF THE SCRIPTURES, TO THEIR OWN DESTRUCTION. 17 Therefore, [let me warn you] beloved, knowing these things beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the ERROR of unprincipled men [who distort doctrine] and fall from your own steadfastness [of mind, knowledge, truth, and faith], 18 but GROW [spiritually mature] in the grace and KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory (honor, majesty, splendor), both now and to the day of eternity. Amen” 2 Peter 3:14-18 (Amplified).

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.

“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 (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.
