WHAT DOES GOD SAY ABOUT THOSE WHO ARE IGORANT TO HIS HOLY WORD.

WHAT DOES GOD SAY ABOUT THOSE WHO ARE IGNORANT TO HIS HOLY WORD.

Proverbs 27:12 A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished. (God calls “prudent”those who know, understand, and live by the Bible. God calls “simple”those who do not believe the Bible, or else do not take the time to study its contents.)

Ephsians 4:18 Having the understanding darkened (speaks of a process completed in the past [the Fall] but having results in the present), being alienated from the life of God (proclaims the only true life there is) through the ignorance that is in them (does not refer merely to intellect, but denotes an ignorance of Divine things), because of the blindness of their heart (it is a “willful ignorance”which brings about a “willful blindness,”i.e., “spiritual blindness”):

Hosea 4:6 My People are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you shall be no Priest to Me: seeing you have forgotten the Law of your God, I will also forget your children. (“My People are destroyed for lack of knowledge,”is the cause of all the problems in the church, and the world, for that matter! The “knowledge”spoken of is the Bible. This “lack of knowledge”was not ignorance, but rather a willful rejection of the Law of God. They didn’t know, but it was because they didn’t want to know!)

Acts 17:30  And the times of this ignorance God winked at (does not reflect that such ignorance was Salvation, for it was not! before the Cross, there was very little Light in the world, so God withheld Judgment); but now where to repent (but since the Cross, the “Way”is open to all; it’s up to us Believers to make that “Way”known to all men):

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom (pertains to proper knowledge of the Word of God), let him ask of God, Who gives to all men liberally (the Lord gives to those who ask, providing they ask the right thing; a greater knowledge of the Word of God is always the right thing), and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. (This means when we ask wisdom of Him, He will not reproach or chide us for our past conduct. He permits us to come in the freest manner, and meets us with a spirit of entire kindness, and with promptness in granting our requests.)

1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit (behind every doctrine there is a “spirit”; if it’s true Doctrine, the Holy Spirit; if it’s false doctrine, evil spirits), but try the spirits whether they are of God (the criteria is, “is it Scriptural?”): because many false prophets are gone out into the world (and they continue unto this hour).

Matthew 7:21-23 Not every one who says unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven (the repetition of the word “Lord”expresses astonishment, as if to say: “Are we to be disowned?”); but he who does the Will of My Father which is in Heaven (what is the Will of the Father? Verse 23 tells us). 22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not Prophesied in Your Name? and in Your Name have cast out devils? and in Your Name done many wonderful works? (These things are not the criteria, but rather Faith in Christ and what Christ has done for us at the Cross [Eph. 2:8-9, 13-18]. The Word of God alone is to be the judge of doctrine.) 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you (again we say, the criteria alone is Christ and Him Crucified [I Cor. 1:23]): depart from Me, you who work iniquity (we have access to God only through Christ, and access to Christ only through the Cross, and access to the Cross only through a denial of self [Lk. 9:23]; any other Message is Judged by God as “iniquity,”and cannot be a part of Christ [I Cor. 1:17]).

Ezekiel 33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand. (Two types of warnings are given in this Passage: the “warning”that should be given to the people by faithful watchmen; and the “warning”that should be given by the Holy Spirit to unfaithful watchmen.)

Proverbs 22:3 A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. (The “prudent man”is the one who lives his life by the Bible and, therefore, “foresees evil.”He can, therefore, protect himself from its environment. The “simple”can be likened to those who do not know or believe the Bible and are, therefore, ignorant of the vicissitudes of the spirit world.)

James 1:6 But let him ask in Faith (some accuse James of denigrating Faith; however, he actually does the very opposite, things), nothing wavering (nothing doubting). For he who wavers is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. (He who continuously veers from one course to another only reveals his own instability and lack of a sense of being under Divine control.)

1 Corinthians 14:33 For God is not the Author of confusion, but of peace (the Holy Spirit will never contradict Himself), as in all Churches of the Saints. (These instructions given by Paul pertain to all Churches, and not merely the Church at Corinth.)

Luke 12:40 40 Be you therefore ready also: for the Son of Man comes at an hour when you think not (regrettably, most of the modern Church doesn’t think the Rapture will take place; this means that it will definitely take place, and very soon!).

Jesus Christ, God Almighty can and will come, with warning or without. Either way, if you get taken in your sins and you do not Repent and turn away from Satan's sinful nature, you will go to hell. The Word of God, that I have been sharing with your lost souls, are Warning letters from God and You better heed His Warnings, is being shared in hopes that you come to Jesus Christ and to the Cross, in Repentance and get Saved. If you are not Reborn Again, you then are hell bound and not Saved. If you are Reborn Again? You then have no license to sin no more. If you are a continuing to be Christian and living in sin, you then are not Saved. There is no such thing as sin, being allowed to enter into the Kingdom of God and if sin comes into Heaven, it will then will be burnt by Fire. You must Repent, turn away from Satan's Sin Nature, in order to be Saved. God is a Loving and forgiving God but, if you don't Repent and admit that God is right and you are wrong? It will be hell for your souls. May God be with you in your decisions on this side of the grave. God Bless
