IGNORANCE – A Deadly And Killer Disease: Don’t Keep Company Nor Partnership – Keep At Bay!
“And the times of this IGNORANCE God WINKED [OVERLOOKED] 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.
Be INFORMED to be TRANSFORMED and EMANCIPATED in LIFE and GRACE – Life is worth the living, therefore, give no room for IGNORANCE with God in matters of LIFE and GODLY LIVING. As a matter of life in grace, DON’T BE A PREY [VICTIM] FOR THE ENEMY AND COHORTS – and I say again don’t be ignorant or stay in ignorant, it’s a cancerous, killer and deadly disease in the midst of knowledge. Find the needed knowledge, if possible PURSUE after it and BUY it to own it, just as you will be crazy to have and own a jewel or pearls.
“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 [Mark 12:24] (Emphasis Mine).
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto TREASURE hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he HIDETH, and for joy thereof GOETH and SELLETH all that he hath, and BUYETH that field. 45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a MERCHANT man, seeking GOODLY PEARLS: 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and SOLD all that he had, and BOUGHT it” Matthew 13:44-46.
Be INFORMED to be TRANSFORMED. Invest time to STUDY, READ and Question YOURSELF ALWAYS, craving for ANSWERS – that will open the door for your UNIQUENESS and DIFFERENCE as JESUS in humanity. [Luke 2:41-50; 2 Timothy 2:15; 2 Timothy 3:14-17]. I challenge you to make INVESTMENT in knowledge. Invest in knowledgeable material – say books, and attend places of acquiring knowledge without prejudice, sentiment and dissemination (hypocrisy), knowing and understanding that the CONTEXT in question, will enhance you in knowledge and understanding on how to do life and be fulfilled. Make needed efforts to stride not just for SUCCESS and EXCELLENCE, but for a FULFILLING life through knowledge. [Joshua 1:8; Proverbs 22:29; Colossians 4:17].
Invest your time to know the WORD of God for yourself and stop this stunted growth in relying only on what you hear from the pulpit or crusade or someone else. This will help you to be noble in grace as the BEREÄN Christians of Acts 17:10-12. Know full well that the HOLY BIBLE is the only authentic, unadulterated and all inspiring, revealing and empowering book that’s INFORMATIVE and TRANSFORMATIVE at any given time. Other BOOKS you READ, but the Holy Bible, is the book that READS you. And the ONLY book whose AUTHOR is ever present while you READ it and to explain it in FULLNESS of details on such context as may be needed and required. Explore to know the WORD OF GOD for yourself and not for someone else today. You are the custodian and definition of your happiness and satisfaction in life and godly living. Knowing God’s WORD will APPROVE you in GRACE and BLESSEDNESS; and it will take you out of ignorance and it’s cancerous effect in everyway of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
Therefore, BE INFORMED – BE TRANSFORMED AND EMANCIPATED. GIVE NO ROOM FOR IGNORANCE WITH GOD. Don’t be the PREY [VICTIM] for the ENEMY and COHORTS. You are worth the best of God – hence, pursue knowledge and understanding in grace in all about that subject and context that concerns you. For you can only ABUSE – that is, ABNORMALLY USE – a thing when you are IGNORANT of the PURPOSE of such. Hence, you don’t need to be mistaken or walk in errors in such a great time of opportunities as of today.
You are the CUSTODIAN of your happiness and joy for today and tomorrow. Wisdom, the application of knowledge rules and defines you, so then, pursue KNOWLEDGE and be free from IGNORANCE at all levels.
Blessed regards!
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
