Luke 9:23 KJV
In the few words above, Christ sums up what it means to walk with and like Him
Many Christians are unknowingly but sturbbonly going on the pathway to the point where all their years of WALKING the walk and TALKING the talk shall be in vain and Christ Himself shall declare that..."go away from me you workers of INIQUITY, i know you NOT!"
The reason being that, it is so easy to get lost in the affairs of this world (without always asking God for guidance) and focus on these as kingdom work and doctrinal pursuit; because the truth has been made a lie and lies have been presented as truth in the daily lives of the average human in many societies, the 'serious' heaven-bound Christian must commit ALL that he does and speaks into the hands of the most High; the one who gives wisdom liberally and sees beyond the physical at all times to HELP us do His work.
As the Bible clearly shows, the devil is the MASTER of CON and he presents himself as an angel of light, not to further entrap his captives alone but to drag out of God's hands (as if it were possible), those that are HEAVEN-BOUND
that is why BIBLE STUDY is not negotiable because "he who thinks he stands should take heed, lest he falls"
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the good Lord delivers him from THEM ALL
Truly understanding God's WORD and its application in our daily lives is paramount because of the times that are evil, the "devil is prowling around, looking for whom he may devour"; he devours by confusing a person's life's work/walk in Christ (for the devoted Christian who is not sound but thinks he is), he destroys individuals and families by enticements which leads to people being puffed up with pride, these ones end up leading many astray(the initial plan of the devil) with proud vain words that sound right except when one critically evaluates the contents with a discerning heart.
Every well meaning Christian who truly wants to serve the Lord and BE USED to expand GOD'S KINGDOM must always do character check and analysis, must be available continually for Holy Spirit assesment and be humble enough to accept the results readily working once more towards a renewed spirit. It is so easy to go off the mark and start working for the other side, knowingly or unknowingly through the overwhelming manifestations of the flesh; major culprit being PRIDE!
1 Pet 4:17-19
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
Revelations 3:19; Hebrews 12:6-11
MATTHEW 16:23-25 KJV
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
