"Ever learning but never coming to the knowledge of the truth."
This is what the Bible tells us is a characteristic of end-times mentality. We see it in the lack of common sense, common morality, and common behavior.
Biblical morality is basic morality. Biblical morality is God's directive for human behavior and interaction. To turn from Biblical revelation,
Biblical morality is basic morality. Biblical morality is God's directive for human behavior and interaction. To turn from Biblical revelation,
Biblical morality, Biblical authority, and Biblical accountability is to turn from basic human standards of behavior. The Bible says that God is our Law Giver, our Judge, and our King.
It is also true that basic Christian beliefs and behavior are being denied and replaced in our society. People are attending religious services and classes, but they are not coming to the knowledge of the truth. This is because of demonic deception. People are believing Satanic lies. I have said for a long time, "If you believe a lie, you live a lie; if you live a lie, you die a lie; if you die a lie, you go to hell."
The rejection of God's word is increasing daily, and as a result, the rejection of God and His rule is increasing daily. Since God's word presents to us normal life, rejection of God's word leads to a sub-normal life. This is why, in Christendom, there is an ever-learning of truth but never coming to the knowledge of the truth.
This is not a new problem. The Western world has been allowing Christian culture to replace Christian revelation and salvation for more than a century, and the rapidity of this exchange is increasing exponentially.
The Church (the Body of Christ); has already lost Biblical knowledge, understanding, and a grasp of godliness. The failure of the older generation to walk in the light of Scripture has robbed the present generation of a firm foundation of truth.
Christendom (the masses who refer to themselves as Christians, without having a living relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ), has neglected and rejected Divine revelation and have become comfortable with a form of godliness that does not have Divine power.
A person is not required to be a theological whiz-kid, but we must be faithful to the truths we know, and we must be eager to grow in grace and knowledge, which means we seek and follow the light that God gives us, and we will gladly turn from the darkness that has held us captive.
Being a Christian means we have come out of darkness into light, and we are continuing to receive and walk in more light as we follow Jesus.
