Bible Note: BradK, I have always come from the beleif that a person should "work" out his own "salvation" in fear and trembling...Phi 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Question1.Why should we work out are salvation in fear and trembling if it is a free gift? Whats there to fear? I believe that God searches the inward parts of every man. Prov.24:20 shows that even evil men have once had a candle. But this candle is put out. I beleive this candle is the law of God written on every mans heart. Pro 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life; Pro 20:27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. Pro 24:20 For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out. Sounds like people who were once elightened by God himself according to Prov.20:27 are now losing this light that once was in them. according to Rev 18:23 The light from a lamp will never shine in you again. The voice of a bridegroom and bride will never be heard in you again. For your merchants were the important people of the world, and all the nations were deceived by your witchcraft. Question2:Do you beleive that the light thats put out is the life and rational thinking of man, even unto death? Or are they christians who have turned from God? Question3:Can a persons heart be hardened once they are born again? And once we are born again do we still have free will to chose which master we serve? Im only asking these questions to see if constantly judging myself by the word of God, so that God wont have to judge me is what Im suppost to be doing.1Co 2:15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged by no one. 1Co 2:16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ. I beleive that I have the mind of Christ knowing all things good and evil. And to discern even spiritual things like knowing that even hating my brother is murder. If we dont judge ourselves, than wont God have to? Whoever would like to reply to any of these questions or statments I would like to hear what light you have to offer. MaTT |
