ESTABLISHING YOUR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS IS IGNORANCE.

 ESTABLISHING YOUR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS IS IGNORANCE.

It has been a problem that men always like to do things the way the feel is right instead of knowing the way God wants it to be done. Obviously it would look good in the eyes of men but in the sight of God they are acting in ignorance because the abhorred knowledge based on God’s standard.

There would never be anytime man could effectively work with God if he lives from his knowledge instead of God’s knowledge. Many have moved from describing God, to narrating God. Others have gone from being expository to being explanatory about God and finally argue everything and anything that does not align with their words from knowledge of philosophy, legalism or archeological reasoning about God.

To understand God’s standards you have to graduate from living by your words from knowledge to understanding word that come from God which is word of knowledge. Words of knowledge gives knowledge of what God did for us in Christ. The Holy Ghost is their  source .Word of knowledge are not words that come from human knowledge but words that come from the Holy Spirit to give knowledge of who we are in Christ. They are revelations that build those who believe in Christ. Through them we could understand what salvation means and how to be saved. We could understand what healing is and how to be healed. Through them we could understand what love is and know how to love. We could understand what prayer is and know how to pray. We could understand what righteousness is and know how to be made righteous with God. The list goes on and on.

But the more one argues everything and anything about God the more ignorance shows.

(ROM 10:  1-3) ¶ BRETHREN, MY HEART'S DESIRE AND PRAYER TO GOD FOR ISRAEL IS, THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED. 2 FOR I BEAR THEM RECORD THAT THEY HAVE A ZEAL OF GOD, BUT NOT ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE.3 FOR THEY BEING IGNORANT OF GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND GOING ABOUT TO ESTABLISH THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, HAVE NOT SUBMITTED THEMSELVES UNTO THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD.

The solution to ignorance is total submission to the knowledge given to us about God by the Holy Ghost who reveals Christ to us as the righteousness of those who are in Him. Tradition does not make any man right with God neither does any government leverage make any man right with God. Establishing your human ideology as a way to be acceptable to God is an indication that you are ignorant of Gods righteousness which could only be found in Christ .

1COR 1:30 BUT OF HIM ARE YE IN CHRIST JESUS, WHO OF GOD IS MADE UNTO US WISDOM, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND SANCTIFICATION, AND REDEMPTION

1 COR 5:21 FOR HE HATH MADE HIM TO BE SIN FOR US, WHO KNEW NO SIN; THAT WE MIGHT BE MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM.

1CO 15:34 AWAKE TO RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND SIN NOT; FOR SOME HAVE NOT THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD: I SPEAK THIS TO YOUR SHAME .

RO 10:6 BUT THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF FAITH SPEAKETH ON THIS WISE, SAY NOT IN THINE HEART, WHO SHALL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN? (THAT IS, TO BRING CHRIST DOWN FROM ABOVE:)

 RO 10:10 FOR WITH THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS; AND WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION.

 RO 14:17 FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NOT MEAT AND DRINK; BUT RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY GHOST.

It is a gross ignorance to say that anyone could be righteous without faith in Christ. It is establishment of your own righteousness by ignorance .I wonder why Christ came if not that all might live through Him. Life here means having eternal life which we receive trough faith in the finished works of Christ. Righteousness does not come by ignorance. It comes by faith through the knowledge of the finished works of Christ for man on the cross. End of story,.

1JOHN 4:9 IN THIS WAS MANIFESTED THE LOVE OF GOD TOWARD US, BECAUSE THAT GOD SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON INTO THE WORLD, THAT WE MIGHT LIVE THROUGH HIM.

ROM 6:8 NOW IF WE BE DEAD WITH CHRIST, WE BELIEVE THAT WE SHALL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM:

ROM 8:10 ¶ AND IF CHRIST BE IN YOU, THE BODY IS DEAD BECAUSE OF SIN; BUT THE SPIRIT IS LIFE BECAUSE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

The righteous of God does not come by ignorance but through faith in Christ because we are save by grace through faith.

Thank you Jesus.
