A huge misnomer now is people saying the truth sets you free by just coming to a higher consciousness in worldly knowledge.
Thank you for taking a look †
With satan coming as savior of the world we can easily see how easy satan will make that path even more attractive promising the things of the world. After all he will be the means to obtain all things of the world, to bow to him, to worship him as Christ/God. satan coming as the "prince of world peace" as well.
(John 14:30) "Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me."
Coming as the prince of world peace (but it's a flood of lies, like the days of Noah)
(Daniel 11:21-22) "And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.
(He'll straighten out all your problems in life and the world's problems he claims. That will be the light for you. A better life).
22Andwith the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant."
(Ecclesiastes 1:18) "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow."
(The path of worldly "enlightenment" as they would say, only brings more darkness. Just take a look at the answers who say they have this (in that maybe they see how lost they really are). They are more lost then ever. This actually brings a higher mind against the Lord in pride. With one terms of pride used in many areas are presumptuous arrogance, i.e. you know all, and all things without the Lord).
Solomon tried it for you, why we are to read compare and contrast in proper order (looking at life with God and seeing meaning, and vice versa). Some say you have to let people make their own mistakes to hit rock bottom. That may be true, but Ecclesiastes is written to avoid that. A life without God in heart in mind, in conscious is what Ecclesiastes is all about. Not seeing the Lord in anything will never bring purpose. No ends to justify the means. That is just common sense. Revolving doors only bring more frustration. The Lord does not work in revolving doors.
Overall, why Solomon concluded in the last chapter it begins at youth 12:1. Before the days in life become ugly, bitter, without meaning/purpose.
The truth sets you free when you no longer serve sin and become sealed (means protected from satan knowing what is to come, your future) with truth. Not as we see the world without the Lord, but how we view the world through His eyes.
Only the Holy Spirit can do this. Only the Holy Spirit in you can see what is to come. The Holy Spirit role in this case, the comforter. The heart-warmer. The love of the Lord coming to make home in you and with you.
(John 14:23-24) "Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
24He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me."
Just as we ask, search, and knock not barging the door down like we own the place. The Lord only comes you ask Him to live with you. When we think about who in their right mind who would turn that down? We must understand the LORD is not letting our own door and make things up as we go along. That would make the crucifixion on the cross null and void to that person. Belief/repentance is the power of the Lord coming to the light. His mighty works in a person. That in itself a great miracle that only He can do.
(Matthew 7:7-8) "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."
Why the Lord always gives common sense wisdom filled answers in simplicity. Kind of like saying, I died for you and bought you a home but then decide you're better off living in a sewer.
Amen †
