GAIN THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS

GAIN THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS 

2 Peter 3:17-18 

Ye Therefore, Beloved, Seeing Ye Know These Things Before, Beware Lest Ye Also, Being Led Away With The Error Of The Wicked, Fall From Your Own Stedfastness. But Grow In Grace, And In The Knowledge Of Our Lord And Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him Be Glory Both Now And For Ever. Amen.

Ephesians 4:13-15 

Till We All Come In The Unity Of The Faith, And Of The Knowledge Of The Son Of God, Unto A Perfect Man, Unto The Measure Of The Stature Of The Fulness Of Christ: That We Henceforth Be No More Children, Tossed To And Fro, And Carried About With Every Wind Of Doctrine, By The Sleight Of Men, And Cunning Craftiness, Whereby They Lie In Wait To Deceive; But Speaking The Truth In Love, May Grow Up Into Him In All Things, Which Is The Head, Even Christ:

We As Humans Love Knowledge; Every Thing That We Do Involves Knowledge. We Gain Knowledge To Breathe On Our Own For The First Time, To Eating As Babies. Knowledge Is Who We Are,  Throughout All Our Lives We Rely On Knowledge To Live. We Gain Knowledge For Our Jobs, We Make And Spend Our Money According To Knowledge. Whatever Makes Us Great Is According To The Knowledge That We Have. If You Are A Great Mathematician, Singer, or Ball Player Whatever It Is, It Is Because You Aquired The Knowledge To Do It. We Need To Know That No Matter How Good We Are At Something Of The World, We Should Be Even Better At The Spiritual. The Spiritual Life Is The Eternal Life. The Life We Live In This World Will Only Last A Few Years, So It Is Important To Get Our Priorities Straight. What Is More Important Something That Will Be Burned Up By Fire Or Something That Will Last An Eternity? Money, Clothes, Cars, Are All Useful, But The Knowledge Of The Son Of God Is So Much Better And More Important In The Long Run. You May Be The Smartest And Richest Person In The World And Not Know The Most Important Thing  And That Is Jesus Christ As Your Saviour. Don't Be Deceived By What The World Says Is Important, Because That Is Satan At Work, He Is At His Finest When You Are At Your Busiest. 

1 Corinthians 1:25-26 

Because The Foolishness Of God Is Wiser Than Men; And The Weakness Of God Is Stronger Than Men. For Ye See Your Calling, Brethren, How That Not Many Wise Men After The Flesh, Not Many Mighty, Not Many Noble, Are Called:

Colossians 3:1-10 

If Ye Then Be Risen With, Seek Those Things Which Are Above, Where Christ Sitteth On The Right Hand Of God. Set Your Affection On Things Above, Not On Things On The Earth. For Ye Are Dead, And Your Life Is Hid With Christ In God. When Christ, Who Is Our Life, Shall Appear, Then Shall Ye Also Appear With Him In Glory. Mortify Therefore Your Members Which Are Upon The Earth; Fornication, Uncleanness, Inordinate Affection, Evil Concupiscence, And Covetousness, Which Is Idolatry: For Which Things' Sake The Wrath Of God Cometh On The Children Of Disobedience: In The Which Ye Also Walked Some Time, When Ye Lived In Them. But Now Ye Also Put Off All These; Anger, Wrath, Malice, Blasphemy, Filthy Communication Out Of Your Mouth. Lie Not One To Another, Seeing That Ye Have Put Off The Old Man With His Deeds; And Have Put On The New Man, Which Is Renewed In Knowledge After The Image Of Him That Created Him:

1 Timothy 6:10-12 

For The Love Of Money Is The Root Of All Evil: Which While Some Coveted After, They Have Erred From The Faith, And Pierced Themselves Through With Many Sorrows. But Thou, O Man Of God, Flee These Things; And Follow After Righteousness, Godliness, Faith, Love, Patience, Meekness. Fight The Good Fight Of Faith, Lay Hold On Eternal Life, Whereunto Thou Art Also Called, And Hast Professed A Good Profession Before Many Witnesses.

GAIN KNOWLEDGE, BUT GAIN THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS!
