You see we learn right to do right
We learn right to do right
We don't just get knowledge just that for knowledge sake the God wants us to have knowledge
So we can know what God wants us to do
You know
It goes back to we're studying the book of James on Sunday night
It goes back to being a doer of the word and not a hero only
Because if you're a doer and excuse me
If you're if you're not a doer and you're here only you're deceiving your own self the Bible says
Why because you're in taking all this knowledge, you know everything there is about the gospel, but what are you're not doing?
You're not putting aside all filthiness and superfluity of nodding as the Bible says and if you're not repenting of your sin
You're not getting right. You're not cleaning up your life. You're deceiving your own self. You're not being a doer of the word
So when the Bible tells us here to be filled with the knowledge of his will and spiritual understanding
It's so that we would walk worthy of the Lord until all pleasing
Is he knowing more of the Bible should actually cause us to live a better life unto the Lord?
Because now we know what God requires of us
More than that. We understand the judgment of God
We understand the wrath of God
We understand that God is a loving God
But he's also a God of justice and judgment that he will chastise his children if they don't obey him
Right if we if we seek to be disobedient we were willingly disobedient towards God
Having that knowledge should cause us to live a life that's pleasing unto the Lord
In other words, we're not ignorant of God's judgments
You know, it's good to gain knowledge and the Bible tells us to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ, we should love knowledge. We should love reading the Bible
We should want to memorize it and study it and know it but it should affect our lives
It should cause us to live a life that's pleasing unto the Lord and what's the result of that
Being fruitful in every good work and increasing the knowledge of God
So what does that say when you gain knowledge?
You'll live a life that's pleasing unto the Lord and what's the result of that?
You'll do good works and what's the result of that? God will give you more knowledge
Right because the more knowledge God gives you if you are a good steward of that knowledge, he'll give you more knowledge
He said well, what if I'm not a good steward then he'll take knowledge from you
And that is fact
