DO NOT WRESTLE WITH GOD’S WORD
“… even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.” 2 Peter 3:15-16 KJV
Listen to some Preachers from January to December, year-in year-out; all they do is argue and criticize the messages and ministries of other Preachers! They try to analyze every message that other Preachers have preached, giving the impression that they are better, or that they are more sincere than others! Most of those who do these are themselves operating by a spirit called the spirit of error!
Ignorance can make you argue what you outrightly lack thorough knowledge about. Being long in Christianity does not increase your spiritual knowledge. Just like living within a school premises does not increase your educational knowledge! You must sit in Class and learn before you can truly know!! Peter had been in Christianity ahead of Brother Paul, yet he admitted that Paul knew some things that he did not know. Peter described them as things “hard to be understood”, and that they were “wisdom given unto him”!
Before you join those who antagonize and wrestle messages and ministries of Preachers, be sure that you have studied the Bible more than them… make sure you have better success in the ministry than them… and be sure you have more of God’s grace upon your life, than them! This is Apostle Peter’s counsel: “… grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. …” 2 Peter 3:18 KJV. Growth will explain some things to you, though you may not understand them now! So, instead of arguing everything you do not understand, to your own destruction; pray to God for more grace to do your ministry work… and increase your studying of God’s word!
PRAY🙏:
Heavenly Father, give me grace and more grace to serve you with my life, and with everything I have! Father, I submit myself to learning more about you and your work oh God; in Jesus’ name I pray. Amen!
