You must be in fellowship prior to your Bible study, so that the spiritual information you receive can become a source, of blessing to your soul and produce spiritual growth.
2 Peter 2:14
14 Having [echo] eyes [ophthalmos] full [mestos] of adultery [moichalis], and [kai] that cannot
cease from [akatapaustos] sin [hamartia]; beguiling [deleazo]
unstable [asteriktos] souls [psuche]: an heart [kardia] they
have [echo] exercised [gumnazo] with covetous practices [pleonexia]; cursed [katara] children [teknon]: KJV-Interlinear
14 having eyes full of adultery
and that never cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having a heart trained
in greed, accursed children; NASB
Adultery here stands
for dishonesty, betrayal, deceitfulness, treachery, unfaithfulness to ones true
life mate.
Your true, and one and
only true mate for life, for all of eternity, is Bible doctrine.That is the only possession, which you can
receive into your soul and possess for all of eternity, and make yourself whole
and complete.That is the one thing that
will give you happiness, fulfillment, meaning and purpose in life, security,
satisfaction, capacity, and completeness of and for your self.
The entire book of the Song
of Solomon, is about divine viewpoint and your intimate relationship with Bible
doctrine.
When you are not true
to doctrine, then you are an adulterer, cheating not only on yourself, but on
God, on Christ, on truth and on everything in life that has any value.
When you are
indifferent toward your spiritual life then you by default, embrace and pursue
sin.And remember that the sin nature
has two regions within it.The first is
an area of weakness, which is sin, and the second is the area of strength
called human good.Both are ingredients for
an apostate life making you a traitorous, fugitive from life.You might want to review the Human Carnal
Nature chart sometime, for a more descriptive view of the regions of the sin
nature.
Continued departure
from doctrine and truth, becomes a habit forming pattern of life that becomes
difficult to correct and escape.Once
you have pursued anti-doctrine values, then that pattern of life becomes your
training ground and breeding ground for disaster and failure in life.
Continued departure
from doctrine results in a pattern of life that becomes as natural to you as
the instincts of animals are to their function in life.At some point in your life, your chosen
philosophies, and beliefs will seem perfectly natural and normal to you. And, once you have adopted a certain view of
life, then correcting it, or changing from it, becomes difficult if not impossible.
Continued departure
from doctrine results in a soul untrained in truth, and therefore an unprepared
soul.An unprepared soul is an unstable
soul, incapable of correctly viewing life.
The eventual result a
cursed life.Not cursed specifically for
this life in this world, but with respect to your overall evaluation for all of
eternity.In this world you will find
all categories of success and failure, but everyone eventually meets their
maker, and in leaving this world, all become equally subject to Gods evaluation.
Spiritual production is
rewarded, while spiritual dysfunction is not.
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.
