Receive The Light

Job 24:13"They are of those that rebel against the light;they know not the ways thereof,nor abide in the paths thereof ".

 

The sins of the godly are magnified more because they are illuminated by the light to which they claim to have. "They are of those that rebel against the light".Light is taken here figuratively for knowledge, it cannot be denied that the wicked sin knowingly; but the godly have a light which should destroy the darkness.

 

We have the light, which shows us the way of righteousness,  we must be careful not to rebell against that light and choose the path of darkness. We have a better eye to see sin than the wicked, and for us to mess around with sin, and embrace the darkness provokes God to anger. So we that are people of God, must flee from sin, our sins are more enhanced than those who are unsaved, because he who knows better should do better. Sins of ignorance are still sins, but the deliberate acts of known sin, and the willful neglect of known duty, are great acts of disloyalty. He who knew his Lord's will and did it not was beaten with many stripes. If a man puts his hand in the fire knowing that it will burn, no one will have pity on him when he burns himself. When the ice is marked Dangerous the warning should be sufficient for any reasonable man. When the notice is repeated over and over at every corner and set up in great capitol letters, he who ventures on the rotten ice is not only a fool but also suicidal should he fall in.

 

The warning signs of the dangers of walking in darkness, and rebelling against the light are plastered everywhere, even planted in the heart of mankind, take heed that you in your folly don't fall in and be cursed to everlasting damnation. Receive the light of life and live
