Understanding

1. Matthew 22:29 'How wrong you are because you don't know the Scriptures or the power of God'   

2. II CORINTHIANS 3: l4 Their minds, indeed, were closed; and to this very day their minds are covered with the same veil as they read the books of the old covenant. The veil is removed only when a person is joined to Christ.

II CORINTWANS 4:3 And even if our gospel is veiled, .it is veiled to those who are perishing. 4 The god’ of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, Who is the image of God.

 

3. ROMANS 1:26 Because they do this, God has given them over to shameful passions.

 

4. ACTS 17: 23 To an Unknown God.

 

5. 1 JOHN 5: 10 So all who believe in the Son of God have this testimony in their own hearts; but those who do not believe God have made Him out to be a liar, because they have not believed what God has said about His Son

 

6. ROMANS 1:25 They exchange the truth about God for a lie; they worship and serve what God has created instead of the Creator himself.

 

7. ROMANS 1:20 Ever since God created this world, His invisible qualities, both His eternal power and His divine nature, have been clearly seen; they are perceived in the things that God has made. So those people have no excuse at all! 21 They know God, but they do not give Him the honour that belongs to Him, nor do they thank him. Instead, their thoughts have become complete nonsense, and their empty minds are filled with darkness

 

8. ROMANS 2:4 0r perhaps you despise His great kindness, tolerance, and patience. Surely you know that God is kind, because he is trying to lead you to repent. But you have a hard and stubborn heart, and so you are making your own punishment even greater on the Day when God’s anger and righteous judgments will be revealed

ROMANS11: 22 Here we see how kind and how severe God is. He is severe towards those who have fallen, but kind to you if you continue in his kindness

JOHN 3:16 For God loved the world so much that He have His only Son, so that everyone that believes in Him may not die but have eternal life

 

9.GENISES 2:7 The time came when the Lord God formed a man’s body from the dust of the ground and breathed into it the breath of life. And man became a living person.

PSALMS 104 He knows what we are made of, He remembers that we are dust.

10. JOHN 3:36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not have life, but will remain under God’s punishment.

MATTHEW 7:14 But the gate to life is narrow and the way that lead to it is hard and there are few people who find it

11. ISAIAH 30:21 If you wander off the road to the right or the left, you will hear His Voice behind you saying, “Here is the road. follow it.”

 EPHESIANS 5:17 Don’t be fools, then, but try to find out what the Lord wants you to do.

 

12. JOHN 1:1-5 In the beginning the Word already the existed, the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 From the very beginning the Word was with God. Through Him God made all things, not one thing in all creation was made without him. 4 The Word was the source of life, and this life brought light to humanity. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never put it out.

16 1 CORINTHIANS 1:18 For the message about Christ’s death on the cross is nonsense to those who are being lost, but for us who are being saved it is God’s power. 19 The scripture says, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and set aside the understanding of the scholars. So then, where does that leave the wise? Or the scholars? Or the skilful debaters of this world? God has shown that this world’s wisdom is foolishness!

 

 17. GENESIS 2:16 He said to him, “You may eat the fruit of any tree in the garden, except the tree that gives knowledge of what is good and what is bad. … if you do you will die… GENESIS 3:4 The snake replied, “That’s not true; you will not die. 5 God said that, because He knows that when you eat it you will be like God and know what is good and what is bad.  6. So she took some of the fruit and ate it.

 

18. ROMANS 2: 14-15 The Gentiles do not have the Law, but whenever they do by instinct what the Law commands, they are their own law, even though they do not have the Law. “Their conduct shows that what the Law commands is written in their hearts. Their consciences also show that this is true since their thoughts sometimes accuse. them and sometimes defend them

23 ROMANS14 11 “As surely as I am, the living God, says the Lord, everyone will kneel before me, and everyone will confess that I am God.”

·        Never apologize for the LORD

The words of the LORD hurt and offend until there is nothing left to hurt or offend.

Jesus Christ has no tenderness whatever toward anything that is ultimately going to ruin a man in the service of God

If the Spirit of God brings to your mind a word of the LORD that hurts you, you may be sure that there is something He wants to hurt to death.

Oswald Chambers. September 26 p191

·        Hebrews 10: 26-31   “29. How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God 31 It is a dreadful thing to fall in the Hands of the living God“

 

Do you believe God, what He is saying in His Word, every sentence? Not merely that He exists. James 2:14-26 To believe that there is a God is demonic (v19), useless (v20) and dead (26). Abraham believed God and was both righteous and called a friend of God (23)

 

The Truth will always hurt if you are far from it. Let the Truth hurt and offend until it is known in your heart and you will find rest as you see Jesus with your own eyes
