Prov 23:12
Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge. NIV
Much like the building of a "House" we hope will continue to stand, exactly whose wisdom do we ultimately acknowledge as having been the founding "Architect" of those same words we've "Observed". sw
How important are the thoughts which suggest we (as Believers in Christ) should pay close attention to as if the words that do come from the very "Mouth" we continue to listen to?
How significant is the "Rhetorical" question God ask of Adam and Eve in the garden. The question which suggest "What"?
Who told you that your were "Naked"?
Do the totality of mans failings in the sight of God have ONLY to do with "What" they (Adam/Eve) were told OR was the heart of the matter that they "Observed" (more highly esteemed) what the voice of someone other than God told them?
Man is quick to acknowledge what he or someone else has said, yet how often does he (man) forget man not only he speaks with his mouth, but just as important by way the things he does?
Rom 1:18-20
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
NIV
Is the above passage of Gods word somehow opposed to the following words that also came from the mouth of God? That is when we have Truthfully considered as if weighing the "Heart of God" as if for "Ourselves"?
What good is any type of boldness if that same boldness is NOT the direct results (and true Power) that has come as the results of the Blood of Christ that was spilled for the sake of power we can only HOPE to find in His name?
Heb 10:16-24
This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
KJV
We are "Willing" to hear ourselves say, (as if profound), "Do as I say and Not as I do" yet how does that "Cross" translate within the realm of what and how Christ and His Apostles taught? A teaching method which also lead the majority to their physical "Death"?
Today many who suggest they also believe the teachings of Christ also go on to commit their own thinking which suggest that ALL the Apostle's of Christ ALL died?
Surely their "Bodies" have died, yet have have many "Buried" as if with those so "Named" physical "Bodies" that were once also possessed by the spirit of "Christ" (Holy Spirit)?
Has this notion come full circle to NOW haunt those who suggest they've "believed" every word that comes from the Mouth of God? And that while trying to fathom the depth of the heart of God?
How many have sought out the value of the meaningful "sword" God continues to make mention of? Is it the type of sword Peter used to cut off the ear of the "Sentry" OR is the type of sword God speaks of the same sword that extends itself from the "Mouth of Christ" in the book or "Revelations"?
In terms of dying, is there a difference between someone "Falling by the sword" or someone who is willing to "Fall On their sword"? And that for the sake of WHO it is that's "True"?
Jer 19:7
And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcases will I give to be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.
KJV
Often we hope that our words are heard by others, yet how often do we "Truthfully" reflect not only on the words our "Own Ears" heed, but also the totality of what our actions speak into the lives of those around us?
More pointedly, do others more often find themselves listening to the totality of what's being said OR could it be they're "Hopefully" listening in order to hear from the "Heart" of the "One" who IS TRULY speaking?
We can somehow "Justify" the faults of others as it pertains to "Who They Choose to follow", yet how much of all that our physical presence does "speak" then go on to confirm something more "Sinister (different)?
More precisely those same words that come from our own mouths which in turn have come from our heart?
1 John 4:17-18
In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him .
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
NIV
That is of course ONLY when we've believed Gods words that suggest "Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks"?
Especially when we truthfully consider the shadow cast by the "High Arching" words of God that project into this world in which we NOW find ourselves in?
We walk day to day in the confidence of what we individually assume to be true, yet how much of what we suggest to others then becomes the very words used to frame our own dealings in this world. sw
Gal 6:6
Anyone who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with his instructor.
NIV
Worldly wisdom might suggest "What Goes around comes around", yet how far do those type of words "Drift" from what is "Absolutely True" and presently applicable. sw
What is there to gain from sharing ones faith without the hope and trust for what might be considered as though gain that found in the understanding of "Who" truth really is. sw
Philem 6
6 I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ.
NIV
