      Good morning!  How are we faithing? Doing a lot of studying lately and I am seeing so many details I didn't pick up on before. It is very important to me all the whys and wherefores I suppose because of a detail type of mind but I find that details matter because a small mistake can grow into a dogma that isn't even taught in the Word.  There have been ministries in the past that started right but strayed into heresy because of lack of good study.  Agenda also plays into this whole heresy subject too.  Anytime there is personal agenda the danger of  falling into heresy is present. I find that when I discover a detail and start looking into it deeper it becomes prudent to check with other trusted scholars just to be sure I don't wander off on a tangent. Wisdom is in the Word and I believe without the Word there is no wisdom. I urge you to not just take the Ministers words but study yourself.  If you are one of those who say "I don't understand the Bible" listen up;  Pray before you read for an opening of your eyes, mind and heart.  Ask questions.  Get some study helps from trusted sources.  Discuss what you are pondering with others if for no other reason, perspective. The Word is so full of wonderful things that will make your life so full it will come gushing out and you will witness naturally.  

Heb 4:12
 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.

2Ti 4:3-4
  For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts;  and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables.

Heavenly Father,
 Grant us sight so we may see you clearly in our days.  Open the scriptures to us. Holy Spirit, envelop us with wisdom and courage to ask questions even though the answers be not to our liking. Lord, bless us all who seek your face. Show us your wonderful love. In Jesus name we pray, amen
