The two callings: what will you choice? (Part 8)
Two thing we can learn:
SECOND: urge the honest to keep on doing Jesus’ will:
The fool don’t concern about the well-being of people around them. They scathe, despise, mock, looking down the following verse:
After all, the righteous one knows that:
And, the only way for that the desire to be fulfilled is finding delight in the presence of the Creator:
Furthermore, the righteous one is aware that the knowledge of the Holy (Jesus) is understanding. Therefore, there is nothing better than approaching Him and those who live in holiness to grow in knowledge.
Finally, the reality is expressed in the verse below:
So, don’t try to change the world (it there were people that tried this in vain – Jeremiah 51:9). Leave the Great Babylon (Rev 18:4) and stay close to Christ’s Body in order to be wise and be light in the world (Daniel 12:3; Matthew 5:14-16; Phil 2:14,15).
Have a good day pondering on this.
- “He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot. Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” (Pro 9:7-10).
Two thing we can learn:
SECOND: urge the honest to keep on doing Jesus’ will:
- rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee: After all, he knows that:
- “A lying tongue hates those afflicted by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin.” (Pro 26:28);
- “He who rebukes a man shall afterwards find more favor than he who flatters with the tongue.” (Pro 28:23)
- “A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.” (Pro 29:5).
- Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: the reason for this is that:
- “the wise man's eyes are in his head; but the fool walks in darkness; ….” (Ecc 2:14).
The fool don’t concern about the well-being of people around them. They scathe, despise, mock, looking down the following verse:
- “He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in darkness until now. He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no offense in him. But he who hates his brother is in darkness, and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because darkness has blinded his eyes.” (1Jn 2:9-11).
- teach a just man, and he will increase in learning:
- “the wise hears and increases learning; and understanding ones get wisdom;” (Pro 1:5).
After all, the righteous one knows that:
- “The desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but it is hateful to fools to turn from evil.” (Pro 13:19).
And, the only way for that the desire to be fulfilled is finding delight in the presence of the Creator:
- “Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” (Psa 37:4).
Furthermore, the righteous one is aware that the knowledge of the Holy (Jesus) is understanding. Therefore, there is nothing better than approaching Him and those who live in holiness to grow in knowledge.
Finally, the reality is expressed in the verse below:
- “He acting unjustly, let him still act unjustly. And the filthy, let him be filthy still. And the righteous, let him be righteous still. And the holy, let him be holy still.” (Rev 22:11).
So, don’t try to change the world (it there were people that tried this in vain – Jeremiah 51:9). Leave the Great Babylon (Rev 18:4) and stay close to Christ’s Body in order to be wise and be light in the world (Daniel 12:3; Matthew 5:14-16; Phil 2:14,15).
