No Turning Back

February 24

Knowledge can be a wonderful or a dangerous thing. Much effort and many resources have been expended to assure universal quality education. This application of money and dedicated service has resulted in an ever-increasing standard of living for an ever-growing number of people around the world.

Yet it has also resulted in a capability too terrible for words to have been placed in the hands of some of a reprobate mindset who desire to use this knowledge to destroy what is held dear by the preponderance of people on the planet—life itself.

In the spiritual realm, there is a danger of having the knowledge of the good things the Word intends for our edification, up-lifting and salvation. The knowledge of Jesus and His incomparable sacrifice in the behalf of those who believe is the only way to attain heaven as our life’s final destination.

But II Peter 2:21 says, “It would be better if they had never known the way of righteousness than if, after knowing it, they turn back.” God does not take lightly the mishandling of His Truth. Jesus, the Way, the Truth, the Life is given for our eternal blessing. To reject Him after knowing Him is to choose death over life.
