A Warning Of Danger

Stop forsaking or neglecting the assembling of yourselves

but by being an encouragement, even so much more as you

see the day drawing near.

Dispensations

No catastrophe, no political  maneuvering or national turmoil

has ever caught God off guard; from eternity past, His omniscience

foresaw every event. More important, He controls history without

coercing human volition. Free will was the issue in the creation of

man and continues to be paramount in this stage of the angelic con-

-flict. Bible doctrine in the soul is the basis for correctly evaluating our

own spiritual advance and our personal relationship to contemporary

events.

By means of doctrine we learn that the ages (dispensations)

have been put together by the word (decree) from God, with

the result that what is being seen has not come to pass from

those who are visible (expanded trans., Heb. 11:3)

It is an arresting thought to realize that your persistence

in doctrine, wherever you are, is a vital factor in maintaining

Your attitude toward doctrine is a determining factor in the

Doctrine In Advance to Super-Grace-- Or Instant Reality

The events we observe unfolding in history "have not come

to  pass from what is visible". In other words, it  is not the

visible which shapes the course of history but the invisible.

We see disaster, catastrophe, depression, wars, disease, death

or  their  imminent  possibility  on  every side; yet there is

an invisible Hand at the helm of the universe--divine interven-

tion and providence-- that safely pilots mankind past the cliffs

and  boulders  of human  lust and folly! (Heb. 11:3)  Implies

that the occurrences in history are regulated by the positive

mental attitude of the members of the Royal Family of God.

That is the slender thread that upholds our nation. Should that

positive volition turn negative, the thread could snap and the

long-expected collapse of this country would be an instant reality.

Knowledge

The Bible

When the Bible is taught exegetically, basic doctrine will

often be interspersed with advanced concepts. This is ad--

vantageous in that each passage contains information for

every believer, regardless of his spiritual stage of growth.

No believer is too ignorant or too academically deficient

to learn Bible doctrine----if he will stick with it!

as it hath pleased him.

Process of Learning

During the learning process, however, you will encounter

doctrine which is beyond your comprehension. Do not be

discouraged! Persistence will enable you to recognize that

currently obscure doctrine will become clear when you have

established the necessary frame of reference. This  principle 

is readily discerned in the human realm, for in academic cat-

egories  you begin   with simple,   basic precepts and progress

from the known to the unknown. Once fundamentals are mastered,

you are able to proceed to more advanced spheres of knowledge.

motion or success. When you lose the grace perspective,

you neglect Bible doctrine. Neglect and rejection of doc-

trine go hand in hand and lead to reversionism. This  was

the case with the believers in Jerusalem. What was the 

result of their reversionism?

He that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder

of them that diligently seek him.

Hebrews 11:6

Dear Lord, I bow before you in stillness and feel you very near.

Here are my problems. Help me to find your way for me.

Genetically Formed

Old Sin Nature

The source of human sin, good and evil. Genetically

formed, it originated as a direct result of Adam's first

sin, and resides in the cell structure of human body 

(Rom. 6:6; 7:15,18). While both male and female are

carries, the sin nature is transmitted only through the

twenty-three chromosomes in the male sperm that 

fertilizes the female ovum (Gen. 5:3 ). At the physical

birth of every individual, Adam's original sin is imputed

to the old sin nature (Rom.5:12), resulting in both spirit-

ual death and the sovereignty of the sin nature over human

life (Rom. 6:12).

"Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted."

Matthew 5:4

Thank you, God, for the many times you have come to our rescue.

Help us to trust you when dark times come.

Beginning The Advance

Taking The High Ground

Hebrews 10:32-39

 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after

ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions

(Heb. 10:32).

What are the mechanics of remembering again and again?

The function of memory resides in the soul. The soul area 

contains self-consciousness

 (awareness of your own existence) 

volition, emotion, conscience (norms and standards),and

mentality, which is divided into two lobes. The right lobe

is the dominant lobe of the soul, designated in the Greek

by the word Kardia (translated "heart" in your English

Bible). "Heart" is never used in a physical sense; it always

refers to the thinking part of the mentality. The left or 

perceptive lobe, where all information first enters, is called

the Nous (translated "mind" ) and acts as a staging area for

knowledge.
