... There Is A Level Of Presumption In The Heart Of Every Man To Go Where The Living God Sends Not To Try To Usurp The Divine Plan!
Presumption Is One Of The Great Lies Calling One To Override Almighty God's Authority Calling One To Bait The Lord Of Life To See If Finite Man - By Dint Of Will - Will - With Disobedience - Gain The Obedient Man's Crown AndLive With The Unchanging God In Peace For Eternity!
What Stands Out For Me Is
The Obvious Lie
The Thought Of Overriding The Unchanging God Will
The Fallacy Of Finite Man Baiting The Eternal, And
The Idea Of The Disobedient Man Getting The Obedient Man's Crown!
Point Taken!
If Man, A Created And Dying Creature Can Override The Will Of The Eternal Unchanging God Then The Lie Is That There Actually Is The Eternal Omnipotent Omniscient Omnipresent Omnipathic God!
Indeed! Man ... Fallen, Dying Would Be God ... Standing Lying!
This Is Presumption ...
Aaron's Sons With Strange Fire On The Altar Of God
Korah And The Princes Challenging Moses' God-Given Authority
Achan Covetously Stealing Banned Treasure
Samson Indulging With Idolatrous Philistine Women
King Saul's Many Bold And Defiant Disobediences
King David With Uriah's Wife And Then Committing Murder
What Was The Result Of These Trips Into Presumption?!
In All Cases
Somebody Lost Their Life!
In King David's Case
Two Innocent Persons Lost Their Lives!
So What Saved King David?!
What Made Him Different?!
Of Note
There Is A Pattern Of Behavior
In The Others
That Was Not Present In King David
And
He, Sorrowing
Immediately Acknowledged His Wrong-Doing
His Sin
Against The Holy God
And
He Wholeheartedly Repented
- In Abject Humility -
When He Was Shown His Sin!
But What About Samson?!
Samson Repented
And
He Asked The Lord
To Give Him Recompense
Against The Philistines
For His Two Eyes ...!
... And He Died With Them!
Let's Get One Thing Straight!
Presumption
- Presumptuous Sin -
Is
Never A Good Idea!
True!
But What About
What About It?!
Isn't That Protection No Matter What?!
I Am Sure That You Know Better
Than To Say That!
Why?!
I Don't Understand!
Rainey, That Is A Promise For
The Obedient Child Of God!
Satan Tried To Use That Promise Against The Savior
Calling Him To Indulge Himself In Sin ... For Bodily Comfort!
