Unbelief is a problem for both the saved and the unsaved Cause us to miss God's purpose for us in the world II. Cause us to build monuments to ourselves instead of God 5. Cause us to practice religion instead of biblical faith 4. It is possible to be destroyed by our own lack of knowledge B. Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood Hosea 4:1-2 Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. Stubborn ignorance - refuse to listen to God 3. Today - same: worship nature, crystals, idols, ancestors, etc Jeremiah 5:21 Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding which have eyes, and see not which have ears, and hear not: 2. Isaiah 45:20 Assemble yourselves and come draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save. Today I want us to look at four such enemies so that we can avoid being a target I. Therefore, we must be ready to fight the enemies if we are to move forward Likewise, the church has enemies that can keep it from moving into the future Self-destruction (Aids, autoimmune problem) The body also has enemies that can damage or even kill it. The same is true for the church - life today promotes life tomorrow. It is natural for the body to function is such a way that life today promotes life tomorrow. Romans 12:4-5 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.īodies are designed to live, to act, to work. INTRODUCTION: The church is described as a body, both in its life and its function
