(Beano;39678)
I was reading Kriss's study of the "parable of the tares" and the passage states that God wants you to know this.What other passages in the bible does god say that he wants you to know, I was thinking particulary of passages that start with the words "I would not have you ignorant" or "I would have you know".Kevin
Hi Kevin,How about this one...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."And this one with the accompanying verse.... (Kriss only presented half of the message)2 Peter 3:8-9 "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, NOT willing that ANY should perish, but that ALL should come to repentance."1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him."Kim
