Secret Knowledge is Truth That God Has Not Revealed to Mankind
Deuteronomy 29:29. Secret knowledge is the providence of God. Organizations that profess to have secret knowledge or truth do not line up with the world of God. God is the source of all knowledge, both revealed knowledge and secret knowledge. When God reveals secret knowledge to a person or group of people, this truth is suppose to be revealed to all of mankind. This is what happened in the Old Testament. God would reveal secret knowledge to a prophet and it was the prophet's purpose to reveal this truth to everyone.
Best Type of Government – Representative, Authoritarian, Theocracy?
1 Samuel 8:5. People can argue all day on what is the best type of government be it representative, authoritarian, or even a theocracy. A more important consideration is who should lead the Government.
Angels - The Natural and the Supernatural
Hebrews 1:14. Throughout the Bible many, many people witnessed angels. The literal definition of an angel means messenger, a messenger of God. God made angels for this purpose. Angels are different from humans. They are "ministering spirits (Hebrews 1:14,"Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?". They can sin and be destined for Hell.
The Holy Spirit Encourages Us in Spiritual Warfare
Romans 8:16. When the Holy Spirit is in us there is no reason to fear no matter what the circumstances. Fear of our circumstances can inhibit us in spiritual warfare to take on the mind of Christ. The spirit of fear puts us in bondage, but the Holy Ghost reminds us and encourages us that we no longer need to be bound in fear. With the Holy Spirit in us we have received the Spirit of adoption. Spiritually we are now a child of God and a brother of Jesus (Romans 8:14-16, "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Respect For Children
Colossians 3:21. God expects us to have respect for children. Parents are here to encourage children, and not provoke them (Colossians 3:21, "Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.").God gives honor to all of mankind (Psalms 8:5) to include children. We must show the same respect for all of mankind to include respect for children.
No Greater Joy Than To See A Fellow Christian Walk In the Truth of God
3 John 4. For a Christian there is no greater joy than to help someone accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. There are many joys when someone begins to walk in God's truth. The person who helped the new Christian find Jesus is joyful because he has fulfilled God's mission of saving the lost. Fellow Christians are also joyful because they are like a bridegroom being happy for the groom. (3 John 4, "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth").
Gracious Uncertainty
1 John 3:2. By accepting the grace of God, we accept God's plan for us in our lives. Thanks to God's gift of salvation and our acceptance of God's grace, our relationship with God is re-established. As adopted sons of God we flow with God's plan as He re-makes us in His likeness (1 John 3:1-2, "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
Child Discipline, A Parent's Responsibility
Hebrews 12:7. God approves of child discipline. It is an essential part of a parent and child relationship. Hebrews 12:7 says "...what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?" If parents do not discipline their children they are basically telling the child that they do not care about them. They are saying they do not want to train their children in what is right. They do not want to give them wisdom to correct their behavior. They do not care for their future either here on earth or in the here after.
