Today’s message is the eighth in our series on the mysteries of the Church Age. Today we shall learn another spiritual revelation from the eternal objective voice of the Bible, about reasons that Holy God has sent His Son, Jesus The Christ, and His Word to be the impetus for providing an approved course to the attainment of His perfect righteousness, which we can only receive as a “GIFT”; and the reason why after being born again (from above) we must become “disciples” who are learners of His Word, (The Bible) which teaches the believer reasoning for application to every matter of their lives. So, let us dig in and think for the next few minutes, about “The Mystery Of Sound Biblical Reasoning”

New Testament Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 2:9 – 16 (KJV)

1Co 2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
1Co 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Transforming Power Facts:
1) The Old Testament is filled with instances and accounts of God’s goal of sanctifying a people for His Own possession, who would resist the temptations of behaving just like everyone else from all the other nations , who operated according to their own desires, apart from any knowledge from God who had called His people, to a life of exemplary peace, mercy, and righteousness.
2) In Deuteronomy 18, the Jews are being called to live their lives to the glory of God unlike other surrounding nations who abused even their own sons and daughters as sacrifices to pagan deities, being led on through witchcraft, sorcery, and other worldly philosophies that defy God and His Word.
3) Learning to apply deep spiritual logic to our lives is the work and calling of the Holy Spirit, who is God, Who indwells each believer to instruct them into the deep things of the Word and Spirit of God, for the purpose of personal and global improvement, which is the Mission of the Church of Jesus Christ, who is to both learn and teach through the mystery of sound biblical reasoning.
