- 0:28Speaker 1: podcast episode and twenty five. The excellency of knowledge excellency
- 0:37Speaker 1: of knowledge Ecclesak six, chapter seven vest off. For wisdom
- 0:44Speaker 1: is a defense, and money is a defense. But the
- 0:48Speaker 1: excellency of knowledge is that wisdom give it life to
- 0:52Speaker 1: them that have it. As to them that have knowledge,
- 0:57Speaker 1: wisdom is good. Money is good, but they have the
- 0:59Speaker 1: garantee of defense. There is a wisdom that guarantees life,
- 1:04Speaker 1: and that wisdom comes by the excellency of the knowledge
- 1:08Speaker 1: of God, the excellency of the knowledge of Christ. The
- 1:13Speaker 1: Bible says in Philippians, Chatter trieves it yea doubtless reading
- 1:17Speaker 1: from basics concerning Zeo paseecuting the church, touching the righteousness
- 1:21Speaker 1: which is in the law blameless. But what things were
- 1:24Speaker 1: again to me those I counted loss for Christ, yea doubtless,
- 1:30Speaker 1: and I count all things but loss for the excellency
- 1:33Speaker 1: of the knowledge of Christ. And I count all things
- 1:36Speaker 1: but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ,
- 1:39Speaker 1: Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss
- 1:44Speaker 1: of all things, and do count them, but don refuse
- 1:48Speaker 1: that I may win Christ. Then Agoza said, and being
- 1:52Speaker 1: found in Him, not having my own righteousness, not having
- 1:59Speaker 1: my own righteousness which is of the law, but that
- 2:02Speaker 1: which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which
- 2:06Speaker 1: is of God, by faith, that I may know Him
- 2:09Speaker 1: and the power of His resolution. So before then Paul
- 2:11Speaker 1: was trying to talk about the excellency of the knowledge
- 2:15Speaker 1: of Christ in us. It is that excellency of the
- 2:18Speaker 1: knowledge of Christ that makes us leave out the purpose
- 2:23Speaker 1: live in the purpose of eternal redemption. Of what eternal redemption? Note,
- 2:31Speaker 1: excellency is what makes you stand out as a believer.
- 2:35Speaker 1: It is what guarantees your defense, the wisdom of defense,
- 2:41Speaker 1: the money of defense. Excellency is backed by an excellent spirit. Yes,
- 2:47Speaker 1: because it is a spirit that controls. The Bible says
- 2:50Speaker 1: in Prophaps seventeen twenty seven. The Bible says he that
- 2:54Speaker 1: had knowledge spirit his word, and a man of understanding
- 2:59Speaker 1: is of an excellent spirits, and the man of understanding
- 3:04Speaker 1: is of what an excellent spirit. So the Bibey's trying
- 3:08Speaker 1: to tell us that excellency is what shows that you
- 3:12Speaker 1: understand knowledge or that you have come to the knowledge
- 3:15Speaker 1: of the truth, because the existence of the truth is
- 3:18Speaker 1: not powerful. It is the knowledge of the truth. The
- 3:21Speaker 1: Bigo says that you shall know the truth, and the
- 3:23Speaker 1: truth are set you free. It's not the existence that
- 3:26Speaker 1: sets you free. It's your knowledge of the truth that
- 3:29Speaker 1: sets you free. That is where the excellence is found.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Remember when God said that my people perish because of
- 3:36Speaker 1: lack of knowledge, Yes, that was simply because they refuse
- 3:40Speaker 1: they did not have the spirit of excellence in them.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Note Daniel was one person, was one person that we
- 3:48Speaker 1: saw an excellent spirit in even though he was knowledgeable,
- 3:51Speaker 1: he had an excellent spirit. That was what made him
- 3:55Speaker 1: stand out, and not just in one regime, in different regimes,
- 3:59Speaker 1: different kings. Now, the word excellence has two interpretations from
- 4:05Speaker 1: the Higbrew wordiaka. The first is valuable, the second is calm.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Will go with camp Because in this context of an
- 4:11Speaker 1: excellent spirit, it's referring to a calm spirit. This is
- 4:15Speaker 1: exactly where a man recognizes stillness stillness. The Bible says,
- 4:20Speaker 1: be still and no, be still and know that I
- 4:25Speaker 1: am God. Now look at the next chapter, the first
- 4:28Speaker 1: verse on the next chatter, now stay telling us something
- 4:31Speaker 1: about stillness that refers to the last versis of an
- 4:34Speaker 1: excellent spirit. In chapter seventeen Proverast eighteen, invest one says,
- 4:38Speaker 1: true desire, a man, having separated himself, seeket and interminilate
- 4:44Speaker 1: with all wisdom. Can you see now? Can you see
- 4:48Speaker 1: from an excellent spirit? So immediately it's finished with in
- 4:51Speaker 1: verse seventeen, with an excellent spirit. It now begins to
- 4:54Speaker 1: talk about how this thing comes about. It now begins
- 4:58Speaker 1: to talk about separation. Isolate, because you can't be able
- 5:02Speaker 1: to achieve stillness, that calmness until you're separated. So yes,
- 5:07Speaker 1: one of the ways to attain stillness is what a
- 5:10Speaker 1: man who desires separate himself seek it and interminiate with
- 5:15Speaker 1: all wisdom. That's how he done gets the wisdom for life.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Some for this is the ten be still and know
- 5:22Speaker 1: that I am God. I will be exerted among the hidden.
- 5:25Speaker 1: I will be exalted in the act. So in stillness,
- 5:29Speaker 1: you achieve single mindedness. You can be double minded. When
- 5:33Speaker 1: you are still, you can be double minded. It is
- 5:36Speaker 1: what leads you to the part of being spiritually minded.
- 5:40Speaker 1: Like romanch that that either he says what to be
- 5:43Speaker 1: commonly minded is dead, but to be spiritually minded is
- 5:45Speaker 1: life and peace. So that life, now that wisdom gives,
- 5:49Speaker 1: is what when you submit to the part of being still,
- 5:53Speaker 1: of spiritual mindedness, this is where the spirit of God
- 5:55Speaker 1: begins to bear witness in a believer's art, in a mass.
- 6:00Speaker 1: That it is in stillness. Knowing God peers weakness. With
- 6:05Speaker 1: your spirit, man, you will find life and peace. The
- 6:10Speaker 1: excellency of knowledge, of the knowledge of God is that
- 6:14Speaker 1: a man begins to leave the life of God. The
- 6:19Speaker 1: excellency of any knowledge is the application, and that application
- 6:24Speaker 1: brings about the wisdom for life. I remain the faith
- 6:29Speaker 1: campaign of Christ. Remember, be God vident, Be God vident.
- 6:35Speaker 1: The Lord lived up the life of his countenance upon you.
- 6:38Speaker 1: The Lord commands the forces of time and chance to
- 6:42Speaker 1: work for you. Blessed be God for eternity.
- 6:48Speaker 2: Key brought to you by the fake campaign of Christ.
