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.


Job 36:18

 

 

18 Because there is wrath [chemah], beware lest he take thee away [cuwth] with his stroke [cepheq]: then a great [rob] ransom [kopher] cannot deliver [natah] thee. KJV-Interlinear

 

 

18 'Beware lest wrath entice you to scoffing; And do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside. NASB

 

 

There is phenomenal danger is continuing down a path of spiritual negativity.

 

Human life in the soul is a living thing. It is the real you. The only things that continues that life, in a healthy manner, are the proper foods. The soul longs, just as the body longs, for the best of foods. Spiritual food comes from the Bible. Truth is the information food for the soul.

 

But in opposition of spiritual food are the worldly foods (beliefs, philosophies, propaganda, attitudes, interpretations of life, etc., etc., etc.). These foods are bad when consumed in great quantities, or if they are the only foods consumed by the soul.

 

Review the charts on the soul of the unbeliever, the believer in fellowship, and the believer out of fellowship.

 

The human spirit is the conduit or transfer mechanism for spiritual food from its source, through the Holy Spirit, into the soul. This allows, when believed and accepted by the believer, for the construction of spiritual muscle within your soul.

 

When out of fellowship or as an unbeliever, then all spiritual food is cut off and becomes just like any other worldly information flow into the soul. Academic information does not build up spiritual structure within the soul.

 

There is only one way to build up true wisdom, true spiritual strength within ones soul and that is through functioning in the spiritual life from within the fellowship sphere.

 

Elihu states this very clearly. When you get angry, when you continue in your sins whatever they may be, then you deactivate the spiritual functions of your life. There is no amount of money, no ransom, which can bypass or set aside this mechanism for life, which God has invented and designed for humanity.

 

You can sin, and from that sin continue in sin and you do yourself no good. Getting angry, upset, feeling sorry for ones self, and pressing these emotions, or transforming them into more sins, more anger, revenge, more self pity and so forth, does you more harm and never any good.

 

You may want to get back at someone, you may want to cry your heart out, you may want to wallow in your attitude, but you're getting even with someone else, or making someone else feel sorry for you will never help you in your real life, which is your spiritual life. Those emotions are really traps for failure in life.

 

It takes greater maturity to impose self-control on your emotions, than to let them loose on others. But the most important principle in this verse is the principle that you can never change Gods design for life. You either live by it and benefit from it, or you reject it and lose.

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.
