2 John 9

Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. (KJV)

Fine Tuned!??     v20n35

“You see, faith must come from what is heard, (for without faith, it is impossible to please God) and what is heard, must come from Word of Christ.” Romans 10:17 Moffatt translation.

“But I ask, have they never heard? Indeed they have. Their voice carried over all the earth, and their words unto the end of the world.” Romans 10:18 Moffatt translation.

“But I ask, have they not heard? Yes indeed: To the whole world the preachers vices have sounded forth, and their words to the remotest parts of the earth.” Romans 10:18 Weymouth translation.

We have to hear the message of Father, through His Son Jesus Christ in order for us (the individual, you or I) to be born again. We have to hear this message of truth, in order for us to act upon His Word, and become that new creation in Christ. However, do we hear this message with the physical ear, or with the spiritual ear? (Those that are after the flesh, do mind the things of the flesh; so then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.)

As we hear the Word of God, this (the Word) is what feeds, nourishes, and strengthens our spirit man. However, unless we have ears and a heart that are willing to hear, listen to, and obey, what will happen to us?

Many claim to be listening to the Word of God, but in fact and all reality, what they are listening to are well-constructed stories and or fables. (2Timothy 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. (KJV)) They are held hostage, kept captive, by the things of this world.

2 Timothy 2:25-26 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. (KJV)

Jeremiah 13:15-17 Hear ye, and give ear; be not proud: for the LORD hath spoken. Give glory to the LORD your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness. But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the LORD's flock is carried away captive. (KJV)

John 5:34-35 But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved. He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light. (KJV)

God is a spirit, and they that worship God must worship Him in spirit and in truth; His Word is truth! To have fellowship with Father, we have to be living and operating in the spiritual realm, not the fleshly. (If any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His!) Jesus Christ said quite clearly, very plainly, that the words that He spoke are spirit and they are life. The flesh profits nothing.

Faith, our ability to believe God, comes and is developed by the time that we take, to stop all that we are doing and have fellowship with Father in and through His written Word. However, many do not take the time each day to fellowship with Father. They have not built up a personal and intimate relationship with Him. They have not learned, nor know how to trust Father for their daily bread, no, not the physical or the spiritual.

We need to learn to become selective in all that we hear, since it is our hearing that will either draw us closer to God, or lead us further away from Him. Where do your words have you? Is all that you hear, all that you are listening to, bringing you into a closer relationship with Father?

Psalms 119:9-10 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. With my whole heart have I sought thee: (KJV)

We need to teach and instruct ourselves on how to give heed to His Word. Many times to what the Word of God says, but we do not hear the guidance and instruction that it is giving us for our daily life. (Now faith is!)

Many will sit in front of the TV set for hours each day, and listen to all of the commercials suggest to them, of what they should have for good health each day. They will take their vitamins each day (and the more they cost, the better they must be). They will sit down and eat their breakfast, and eat what the world has told them is best for them. They will have their snacks or rolls with the morning coffee. They will have a fast food lunch; and then gorge themselves at dinnertime. Can one really believe that all that they have ate that day has truly been healthy for them?

What we hear, advertisements, peoples recommendations, and every other such thing, is much of what determines what we buy; what we eat; where we go; and whom we choose for friends. How often do we turn to the Word of God before we make any of these choices or decisions?

The decisions that we take from other people and try, we then recommend or suggest to other people. We share those recommendations and suggestions with them and tell of our opinions. We have now become an endorser and promoter of the products or things that we have suggested to others.

Likewise, what we hear about God; we then too make decisions and choices. We go off of what sounds good; or feels good. We go off chasing what we have seen other people do. And then we will eventually recommend it to others. (Have we forgot, that Father will hold us accountable for anyone that we lead astray?)

However, unless we have a personal and intimate relationship with Father, how do you know that that which you are recommending to someone else, is what is truly good for their spiritual well being? How sure are you of what you are sharing that it is straight from the throne of God Almighty?

It is no different than when most of us go into a bakery, we do no get what is best for us; rather we get what pleases us. And this is what most also do with God. They do not seek that of His Word for what is best for them, but rather that which most pleases them, that which will make them most a part of the crowd. We need to become selective in what we allow ourselves to hear and listen to. We need to be sure that what we hear is truly good for our spiritual well being. They have to be words that will bring us into a closer relationship with Father.

2 Timothy 3:14-17 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. (KJV)

Are your ears fine-tuned to the voice of God? Or, are you one of those that have turned aside unto fables?

That you may know Him,
In the service of Jesus Christ
