Finally, what I find to be one of the strongest arguments about this understanding of v9 and who, then, it was written to/for is this, why would our omniscient, omnipresent God, who knows
the end from the beginning, be "
longsuffering" towards anyone who He
ALREADY KNOWS will
never come to saving faith in the Lord Jesus Christ
Thanks, Amen
Spiritual Life giving from the
Father , loving commandeered to "study" to show oneself approved to our God not seen.
He warns us of antichrist (another teaching authority other than sola scriptura) . . . . . false apostles, false prophets bringing oral tradition of mankind false prophecy.
Not just a good suggestion to the whole world but a "let there be powerful law" not subject to change '
Living words. living bread called hidden manna in Rev 2:17
2 Timothy2:15
Study to shew
thyself approved unto
God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the
word of truth.
You could say the beginning,of new birth the living loving commandment freely given us. His good understanding and power to perform it toward the good power of his name giving us a desire to study
John 6: 63 It is the
spirit that
quickeneth; the
flesh profiteth nothing: the
words that
I speak unto
you, they are
spirit, and
they are
life.
The
think not commandments used 22 times in the new. . or hear
me commandments of living words that work in the hearts of mankind
Matthew 3:9 And
think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that
God is able of
these stones to raise up
children unto Abraham.
In that way he alone empowers his living word to both will and do .the law of faith .Let ther be and it not seen m was made seen
Hebrew4:12;For the
word of God is
quick, and
powerful, and sharper than any
twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of
soul and
spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a
discerner of the
thoughts and
intents of the heart.
The twoedged sword cuts two ways or
both. . again (1)to hear the Let there be will and (2) power to perform revealed as good..
It easy to forget its
living seeing it is by
his power
Pray mankind get in His will as early in life as possible and stay as long as one can obey the loving, living commandment and not harden their hearts then we can
rest in the
gospel
Christ the husband has left us His bride with many (think not) good tools needed to rightly divide sola scriptura.
