STUMBLING BLOCKS CAUSING OFFENSE THERE IS A GROUP OF PEOPLE WITH YOU THAT ARE NOT SAVED, THEY ARE ONLY WITH YOU TO CAUSE YOU TO FAIL, Satan PUT THEM AROUND YOU TO CAUSE YOU TO STUMBLE, THEY SAY THEY ARE SAVED, THEY ACT LIKE THEY ARE SAVED, BUT THEY DONT LIVE SAVED, ALL THEY TALK ABOUT IS THE WORLD, THEY CAME OUT OF EGYPT, BUT EGYPT IS STILL IN THEM, ( THE WORLD ) THEY WILL CAUSE US NOT TO GROW, TRYING TO GET YOU OFFENDED, ALWAYS CAUSING TROUBLE, THEY LOVE SIN AND SHAME, AND CONFUSION, EVER LEARNING, AND NEVER ABLE TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH, WHILE THEY PROMISE THEM LIBERTY, THEY THEMSELVES ARE THE SERVANTS OF CORRUPTION, FOR OF WHOM A MAN IS OVERCOME, OF THE SAME IS HE BROUGHT INTO BONDAGE, FOR IF AFTER THEY HAVE ESCAPED THE POLLUTIONS OF THE WORLD THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST, THEY ARE AGAIN ENTANGLED THEREIN, AND OVERCOME, THE LATTER END IS WORSE WITH THEM THAN THE BEGINNING, FOR IT HAD BEEN BETTER FOR THEM NOT TO HAVE KNOWN THE WAY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, THEN, AFTER THEY HAVE KNOWN IT, TO TURN FROM THE HOLY COMMANDMENT DELIVERED UNTO THEM, BUT IT IS HAPPENED UNTO THEM ACCORDING TO THE TRUE PROVERB, THE DOG IS TURNED TO HIS OWN VOMIT AGAIN, AND THE SOW THAT WAS WASHED TO HER WALLOWING IN THE MIRE, WHILE IT IS SAID, TO DAY IF YOU WILL HEAR HIS VOICE, HARDEN NOT YOUR HEARTS, AS IN THE PROVOCATION, FOR SOME, WHEN THEY HAD HEARD, DID PROVOKE, ( HOWBEIT NOT ALL THAT CAME OUT OF EGYPT BY MOSES ) BUT WITH WHOM WAS HE GRIEVED FORTY YEARS ? WAS IT NOT WITH THEM THAT HAD SINNED, WHOSE CARCASES FELL IN THE WILDERNESS ? AND TO WHOM SWARE HE THAT THEY SHOULD NOT ENTER INTO HIS REST, BUT TO THEM THAT BELIEVED NOT ?SO WE SEE THAT THEY COULD NOT ENTER IN BECAUSE UNBELIEF, BE YOU NOT UNEQUALLY YOKED TOGETHER WITH UNBELIEVERS, FOR WHAT FELLOWSHIP HAS RIGHTEOUSNESS WITH UNRIGHTEOUSNESS? AND WHAT COMMUNION HAS LIGHT WITH DARKNESS ? AND WHAT CONCORD HAS CHRIST WITH BEIAL ? OR WHAT PART HAS HE THAT BELIEVETH WITH AN INFIDEL ? AND WHAT AGREEMENT HAS THE TEMPLE OF GOD WITH IDOLS ? FOR YOU ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD, AS GOD HAS SAID, I WILL DWELL IN THEM, AND WALK IN THEM, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE, WHEREFORE COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM, AND BE YOU SEPARATE, SAITH THE LORD, AND TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING, AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU, AND BE A FATHER UNTO YOU, AND YOU SHALL BE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS, SAITH THE LORD ALMIGHTY, WHEREFORE SEEING WE ARE ALSO COMPASSED ABOUT WITH SO GREAT A CLOUD OF WITNESSES, LET US LAY ASIDE EVERY WEIGHT, AND THE SIN WHICH DOTH SO EASILY BESET US, AND LET US RUN WITH PATIENCE THE RACE THAT IS SET BEFORE US, WATCH AND PRAY. 2 Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Peter 2:19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. Hebrews3:15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. 16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. 17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. 2 Cor 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. Hebrews12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
