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.
James 5:6
6 Ye have condemned [katadikazo] and killed [phoneuo] the
just [dikaios]; and he doth [antitassomai] not [ou] resist [antitassomai] you [humin].KJV-Interlinear
6 You have condemned and put to
death the righteous man; he does not resist you.NASB
Spiritually negative
people condemn by virtue of their own opinions regarding life.Opinions which disregard or contradict, Gods.
Any deviation from
thinking doctrine, any deviation from living within the spiritual sphere of
fellowship, is a condemnation, insult, indifference, slight, offense, toward
truth, toward God, toward Christ, and toward mature believers in general.
By maintaining a spiritually
indifferent attitude, in whatever form, slight or defiant, you condemn the
mature specifically, and all believers in general, to death.
This death is the
theft caused by the unrighteous, of that which belongs to the righteous.
And what do the
righteous do to resist this injustice?Nothing.
This resistance is a reference
to the inability of man to counter the control of evil in the world.
You may know what is
right and what is wrong, but the world is greater than you.You cannot correct the world.You cannot save the world.You cannot change the world.
God has a plan for
human history and human history for the most part, is allowed by God, to go its
way.Those who sit in the seats of power
in the world, are allowed to rule as they see fit.The masses of the world are allowed to have
the rulers that they desire.
In some cases God
raises up good rulers from good populations, and pockets of truth and
prosperity thrive in the world.But in
the long run, the world will eventually go down the tubes just as the doom and
gloom prophecies foretell.
But, regardless of
what the world will do in any given generation, you always have the control of
choice over your own life.With
doctrine, your life will be a successful preparation for the next life.Without doctrine, your life will end up a
disaster, regardless of your worldly successes.
Jesus Christ controls
history, not you.Jesus Christ controls
history, not legislation.Jesus Christ
controls history, not the liberals, not the conservatives, no one.Jesus Christ controls history, and it is Gods
plan that will continue to its conclusion, not mans.
You do not resist,
because resistance is futile in a world ruled by evil.But you do not do nothing either.
What you do, is study
your Bible, live in fellowship, grow up spiritually, be responsible in all
things, and be obedient to Gods mandates and will.You voice your opinion where it is
appropriate.You vote at the polls.You fight for and defend freedom wherever it
is attacked.But most of all, you
observe Gods miracle controls over history, and watch as His will is always accomplished,
not mans.
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.
