PHILOSOPHY OF MEN 1



PHILOSOPHY OF MEN 1
Philosophy is a comprehensive system of belief. It is a general principle usually moral. Men’s way and thought are not that of GOD. Isaiah 55 vs. 8-9: For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. No man on earth can be compared to the All WISE GOD. The bible said in 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men; and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. Vs. 26: (NIV): Brothers and sisters think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards, not many influential and powerful, not many of high and noble birth. Vs. 27 (KJV): But GOD hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and GOD hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty. Vs. 28 (NIV): GOD chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are, Vs.29 (KJV): That no flesh should glory in his presence. Philosophy of men sees taking GOD’s glory as nothing. Philosophy of men see GOD’s rule and will as a defect. Philosophy of men tries to bend GOD’s rule and will to their own taste. Philosophy of men sees these worldly things as everlasting. Philosophy of men takes vainglory. Philosophy of men sees this world as theirs. Philosophy of men loves the world and things that are in it. Philosophy of men sees prayer and fasting as futile. Philosophy of men walks not in the Spirit; but after the flesh. Philosophy of men sees their wisdom and knowledge as spontaneous.
              These people also used the philosophy of men in Genesis 11 vs. 4: And they said go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole world. Vs. 5: And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. Vs. 6: And the LORD said, Behold the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do; and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. GOD confound their languages, that they may not understand one another’s speech. Vs. 9: Therefore, is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth; and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of the earth. Philosophy of men will surely fade and fail. Proverb 21 vs. 30: There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD. This write up continues…It is well with us.

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WHAT REASON?

WHAT REASON? This write up is a question to us all. What reason? Reason is a motive for an action or determination. To every reason, there is a motive and action. GOD created us for a reason. He made us to worship Him and glorify Him. The bible says GOD is a spirit and they that worship Him, should worship Him in spirit and truth. GOD sent his son JESUS for a reason. He came to this world to die for all our sins . In Job 1 vs. 7: GOD said to satan, where have you been? satan answered the LORD, I have been wandering around on the earth . The devil wanders around on the earth for a reason; he wanders to steal, kill and destroy. vs. 8: Then the Lord said to satan, have you seen my servant Job? There is no person on earth like Job. Job is a good and faithful man. He worships GOD and refuses to do evil things. Vs. 9-10: satan answered and said, sure! But Job has a good reason for worshipping GOD. You always protect him, his family, and everything he has. You have made him successful ...
