A One Time Purchase

Proverbs 23:23 (KJV)

23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

Almost All Things Need to be Repurchased, Eventually!

Except Truth…

It’s Like Buying Eternal Life-

What is there left to need after that?

It Never Expires!

Truth is so valuable that once you buy it-

Don’t ever sell it!

The Dividends of Truth Will Pay Off For an Eternity!

Where will we go for thou haste the words of Eternal Life!

Buy The Truth-

It’s a one time purchase!

The Absence of Love

2 Thessalonians 2:10 (KJV)

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

-Love Is Glue…

-Love is an Inseparable Bonding…

Love in a Marriage takes 2 separate people and make them 1 Unit…

Things That You:

⁃ Like

⁃ Adore

⁃ Enjoy

Can Be Bought, Traded and Fade.

But Loving the Truth

Makes You One With Truth…

Inseparable!

Any Other Way Will Leave You Open to “Deceivable Unrighteousness”

The Path to Delusion!

All Tales

Proverbs 18:8 (KJV)

8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

Talebearer-

A Teller of Stories:

Often though not always are true and often are “told”

As to discredit someone!

These Are Tremendously Hurtful…

If You Have Damming Information on Someone-

Rather than tell someone else to help relieve your doubts-

Take it to Someone Who Can Not Just Agree and or Support the Tale,

But Rather, Can Fix The Problem-

And Not Just Offer An “Opinion”

Pray to God…

He Is Accepting All “Tales”

Pleasing God

Romans 8:8 (KJV)

8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

God is not Requiring-

-Your First Born

-Conquering Mountains

-Talent

-All your money

To Please Him…

All He Wants- is for you not to be in the flesh…

Fleshly Minded..

This is all it takes to please Him!

What Are You Minding?

Romans 8:5 (KJV)

5 For they that are after the flesh do (mind) the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

*What you spend the most time Caring for is the Prediction of what you will defend the most!

Rather than judge your Intentions-

Let’s evaluate our time (minding)…

Quality is not always better than Quantity…

Actually What We Spend the Most Time Doing

Is a True Mirror of What We Are!

What Are You Minding?

1 Peter 4:11

Split Personalities

Romans 8:7 (KJV)

7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

God Does Not Recognize “Split Personalities”

He Is a God of “Oneness”

Split Personalities are a justification for doing your own thing…

You Cannot Be

“Spiritually Carnal”

You are one or the other!

The Carnal is an Enemy

Against God!

You Never Know What a Carnal Person Will Do Because They’re Not Subject to the Laws of God!

Unstable as Water!

The “Spiritual” are Predictable and Open-

Nothing to Hide!

Whereas the Carnal-

No one knows what they’re going to do…

1 Peter 4:11

Separation From

1 Corinthians 5:11 (KJV)

11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company,

if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

*Another Translation-

1 Corinthians 5:11 (AMP)

11 But now I write to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of [Christian] brother if he is known to be guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater [whose soul is devoted to any object that usurps the place of God], or is a person with a foul tongue [railing, abusing, reviling, slandering], or is a drunkard or a swindler or a robber. [No] you must not so much as eat with such a person.

⁃ Not to keep Company

⁃ No not to Eat

Regardless of your opinions or Debate of Why…

The Bible is Precise!

Separation is for your Benefit not (Theirs)

When Fellowshipping-

Good with (Well?)…

Good will be marred and overcome by the association..

The Only Way That an Individual Who is (Well?)-*(supposed to be a Christian)~

Can Change is Not by Association…

But Rather by Change…
