I DARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Genesis 3:7 " And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew.."
Jason Bourne in Bourne Supremacy, discovers who he is and the pain he’s caused and tells someone,
" That Knowledge, It changes things doesn’t it."
Genesis 3:7 is of about Adam and Eve. How everything changed the second they sinned against God. Knowledge is a very powerful thing. It can also be a horrible curse. Have you ever tried not to think? You can’t. You can delay it, but as a dam breaks under extreme pressure, so will you thoughts. There is no rest from thought. None! Have you reached the truth in life yet? I mean who you really are under the fake smiles, and handshakes? We all have a deep part of us that we hide from. But one day God will expose the darkness in the core of our soul.
"That knowledge, It changes things doesn’t it?"
After the TRUTH sets in, the only thought you’ll fix on next is, Oh God, make it go away. What have I become? I’ve known strong willed men who’ve tried to escape God and in the end taken their own lives. If you know the Bible, then you know that the Tree that Adam and Eve were not suppose to eat from was, the Tree of THE KNOWLEDGE of Good and Evil. They already had the Knowledge of Good in living with God. So what did they get from sin, The Knowledge of Evil. This is why the greatest way to torture a human being is to place them in solitary confinement,. Their dark soul catches up with their mind and the KNOWLEDGE of it drives them insane. This is how so many of us came to love Christ. We came to the end of ourselves and asked Jesus to save us from the wickedness we’d become. We tried it all, even numbing that Knowledge with alcohol, diving deeper into sin, only to discover it takes more and more to cover the pain from the scars left behind by it all. Are you there yet??? If you’re brave enough, I DARE YOU. Place yourself in Solitary Confinement and find That KNOWLEDGE!! Beware!!! You may not like who you find in there. In that frozen moment call out to Jesus. He’ll come to you.
Do you know what the worst part of Hell will be for the lost? That eternal curse of knowing a loving God did all he could to save them and they turned away. Now they’ll have all eternity to suffer in the Knowledge that they can never be with God ever! It’s too late for them but not for you! Please think deep on what is above and ask Jesus to fill your hearts.
"That Knowledge, It Changes Things Doesn’t It?"
None but Christ, None but Christ,
