2 Peter 1:10
10 Wherefore [dio] the rather [mallon], brethren [adelphos], give
diligence [spoudazo] to make [poieo] your [humon] calling [klesis] and [kai] election [ekloge] sure [bebaios]: for [gar] if ye do [poieo] these
things [tauta], ye shall [pote][ptaio] never [ou me] fall [pote][ptaio]: KJV-Interlinear
10 Therefore, brethren, be all
the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you; for as
long as you practice these things, you will never stumble;NASB
Therefore, means simply
that if you recognize the significance of life, if you look beyond your pet
beliefs and attitudes, if you come to realize that your life has more potential
than just the things you do day after day, if you go beyond your wishes, hopes,
dreams, hobbies, immediate desires, if you do all of this and finally figure
out that your life will last for all of eternity, and that this is your one
opportunity to get ready for the greater part of your life, then you need to
get with the program of preparation, because you haven t much time.
Joke about it, ridicule
about it, settle back into your daily waste your life habits, and one day you
will be extremely sorry.
Give diligence, means
make your own personal life and preparation, your single most important thing
in your life.
Far too often folks will
spend their time on frivolous things.We
watch too much television.We spend too
much time day dreaming and wishing.We
focus on our career as though that is all that we have.We hustle around in life, or we procrastinate
life away, or we just play games in life.
We make the near things
(near sighted principle from yesterday) our priorities, and ignore the far
sighted things (our spiritual life).
You, as a believer in
Christ, were chosen by Him.His choice
was through your belief in Him.That
makes you special, in that God, chose you.And who or what are you?Nothing.Why would God choose
someone who is nothing?
You can continue to fill
up your days and months and years by doing the same nothing things that you do
day after day.Things that gain you
nothing.
Or, you can invest a
little time in your daily routine, and build up your destiny, with Gods
blessing.Why is that such a difficult
task?
In doctrine you will
never fail.
Outside of doctrine,
failure for you will be certain.
Now is the time to post a prayer.
End Of Lesson
Study to show thyself approved (mature) unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (studying/discerning), the Word of truth.
