'' The Truth Hurts'' is what it is saying basically.

You have a point in that people love sin. When one is in their sin nature in the fullness of their unrepentant hearts the darkness of sin keeps them blind.

However God's word being a twoedge sword let's us know that just as changes take place when making coffee and tea... changes must take place in the lives of a believer because that is the job of God twoedge sword. Yes, the truth hurts, but it also heals and brings us from darkness to light. As we grown in God.. the truth of God in us; goes from hurting to transforming us into the things of God.

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 (KJB)

Hebrews, Chapter 4, begins with the Sabbath rest. Paul was explaining why sabbath rest is crucial.

Therefore a sabbath rest still remains for the people of God. And whoever enters into God's rest, rest from his own works as God did from his. Therefore, let us strive to enter in to that rest, so that no one may fail after the same example of disobedience.

Indeed, the word of God is living and effective, sharper than any two-edge sword, penetrating even between soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and able to discern reflections and thoughts of he heart.

No creature is concealed from him, but everything is naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must render an account.

In Biblical times, words were regarded as powerful--to the point once a word is spoken it becomes an independent thing. The word of God is powerful. It goes forth and it does things. Those words are effective and do what they are designed to do. They are for all time. For example, would anyone argue the benefits of a day of rest?

Also, before God, there are no pretenses, no cons. He sees our very thoughts, and our intents. He sees the truth of us.

Elijah is the best prophet to remember in times people cannot see God. He was looking for God in great events, and instead found him in the tiniest of whispers. Look for the tiny things in nature, in thoughts, in people. God is indeed in our midst.

Our ancestors are worthy of great respect, and we diminish ourselves when we denigrate them. Their spirituality has always been a great model, not only others in their own time, but to people in later times.

How did your own spirituality grow? When it emerged from within you, did it begin being nourished by anything outside yourself?

I'm so glad you brought up Hebrews chapter 4 mentioning the promise to enter his rest. As that promise remains as just that "a promise". However, God tells us that because His Word is a twoedged sword that we better "Beware" that we do not fall short of the promise.

God speaks of his word benefiting" us by faith.

1. As some did hear it, but it did not benefit them to where they made any changes towards righteousness.
2. As some did hear it, but it did not benefit them to where they walked in the Spirit of it. Many hear it... then speak in doubt of it. God's Word has no benefit to them.

When we lack faith and fail to walk in God's Word that angers God. God says I swear in my anger they will not enter into my rest-Hebrews 4:3. They were hearers without any faith. Lack of faith is disobedience. Just as it is the lack of an application (good works) in what one believes (faith) in. It's so horrible that Holy Bible calls it a patter of disobedience. To hear it, and speak against it creates a pattern of disobedience, and that angers God.

God's Word is living. No one should ever speak against something so sharp and powerful, that penetrates the soul, spirit, bone, and marrow. God's Word is so alive that is judges the thoughts and intents of our hearts. God's Word is living. Not one creature on earth is hidden from God. God is our Creator and it is best we obey him because we love God.

sooooooo... what does this scripture mean to you? “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12(KJB)

... seems there already is a response.

not everyone dwells in the house of judaism, jesus offered the heavens, self determination their religion as requested for admission to the everlasting not words, a goal to be accomplished - or perish.

Jesus offered the word of God, that you state he did not offer.

Jesus did battle with Satan the Devil with the Word of God, "Hath not God said..." Jesus

John 15:9. 9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. John 14:15 "if you love me, you will keep my commandments.

Everything Jesus does and says is about the two-edged sword; that Word of God, Amen.

oh breezie----it's poetry. Try to appreciate the art

It means the Bible is the ACTIVE Word of God. Isaiah 55:11--God's word will not return to Him void but WILL ACCOMPLISH what God intends.

Thats so true what you said about the Bible being active because the Word of God is alive. The Word of God is like a living and breathing university of Kingdom knowledge and power.

surly - though dark and the mystery foreboding -

brightness, liberation theology is the true nature for the events during those times they gave their lives for.
