The Keepers of the Law – Part 35
1Peter 2:2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:
Our flesh NATURALLY wants to be praised. It WANTS to be “good”. It can’t, but it wants to. Sometimes. It is called PRIDE. ALL people have this. We want to PLEASE those we love. Like being an olympian!
Why would Peter have to counsel us to “DESIRE” the WORD – if it happened NATURALLY???????? Ummmm, he wouldn’t. We would all have it. But we all don’t. So he RECOMMENDS or ADVISES us to desire it – that we may grow.
So what if we don’t desire it? Then we don’t grow. Or does that mean we never got Born Again???? Hmmmmm.
It’s pretty obvious, to those willing to hear it.
We, of couse, stay BORN AGAIN newborn babes – but BORN AGAIN newborn babes IN CHRIST!
John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
THE SPIRIT. You can HEAR it.
But you can’t SEE it. It is INVISIBLE TO THE SIGHT!!!!! But, DETECTABLE BY THE EAR!!!!
Proverbs 20:5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
1Corinthians 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
Proverbs 18:4 The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
