MANY SPEND DECADES OF YEARS AND MOST OF THEIR LIFE STUDYING THE BIBLE BUT FOR SOME REASON THEY CAN NOT GET THE CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF THE MESSAGES THEY ARE SEARCHING AND THIS LACKING LEADS TO THE WRONG APPLICATION OF THE SCRIPTURES. KEEPING IN MIND THE OBSERVATION OF JAMES 3:1 WE REALIZED HOW VITAL IT IS TO BE ACCURATE IN OUR UNDERSTANDING BECAUSE THE TRUE GOD IS CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT HIM. (JOB 42:7) THE FOLLOWING ENLIGHTENMENT WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH THE KEY RULE TO UNLOCK THE ESSENTIAL OF THE BIBLE TRUTH AND HELP YOU TO AVOID BEING EXPOSED TO CONFUSION AND ILLUSION.

THIS UNIQUE KEY RULE IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE NINE CATEGORIES OF THE PERSONAGE THE MESSAGE OF THE BIBLE REFER TO.

Here are the 10 categories of people identified in the bible:

1-     Devil & Demons

2-    Wicked people

3-    Unbelievers

4-    Hypocrites

5-    Presumptuous ones

6-    Believers (great crowd)

7-    Believers (foreordained, chosen, anointed, Jesus’ brothers)

8-    Apostate

9-Jesus Christ

10-    GOD (Yahweh, Jehovah, Yah)

Although the bible is harmonious, you will find many passages that may seem to be a contradiction as the following:

Example 1 – Amos 3;7 “For the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will not do a thing Unless he has revealed his confidential matter to his servants the prophets.” On the other hand, the scriptures say in Matthew 24:42 “Keep on the watch, therefore, because you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.”

Example 2 – psalm 37:11  “But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.” However, the scripture says in 2cornthian 5:10 “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of the Christ, so that each one may be repaid according to the things he has practiced while in the body, whether good or bad.”

Example 3 – Hebrew 12:6 “For those whom Jehovah loves he disciplines, in fact, he scourges everyone whom he receives as a son.” Yet, notice what it says in 1corinthian 6;11 “…..But you have been washed clean; you have been sanctified; you have been declared righteous in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God.”

Example 4 – Roman 2:1 “Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are, if you judge; for when you judge another, you condemn yourself, because you who judge practice the same thing.” On the other hand, the scripture in 1 Corinthian 5;3 says: “Although absent in body, I am present in spirit, and I have already judged the man who has done this, as if I were actually with you.”

Example 5 – Roman 11:17 “However, if some of the branches were broken off and you, although being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became a sharer of the richness of the olive’s root.  We see in Galatian 3:29 “Moreover, if you belong to Christ, you are really Abraham’s offspring, heirs with reference to a promise.” Also in Roman 8:29 “Because those whom he gave his first recognition he also foreordained to be patterned after the image of his Son, so that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.” because of the mentioned text of Galatian , roman 11;17 can only apply to the great crow from all the nation and by including the anointed ones of God in this comprehension the contradiction will pub on .

 Example 6 – in Matthew 25: 10 – 12 we read:” while the foolish virgins were going off to buy the oil for their lamps, the bridegroom came. the virgins who were ready went in with him to the marriage feat and the door was shut”. on the other hand, Ephesian 2;10 said about the category 7 ( anointed one of God ) ” they are God’s handiworks and were created in union with Christ Jesus for good works, which God determined in advance for them to walk in them ” the text of Roman 8: 29 goes in the same with Ephesian 2: 10, if Jesus illustration will contradict Roman 8:29 and Ephesian 2: 10 if it is apply to the anointed ones of God

example 7 – In 1 Corinthians 5: 9-11, 13 we read « In my letter I wrote you to stop keeping company with sexually immoral people, not meaning entirely with the sexually immoral people of this world or the greedy people or extortioners or idolaters. Otherwise, you would actually have to get out of the world. But now I am writing you to stop keeping company with anyone called a brother who is sexually immoral or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. while God judges those outside? “Remove the wicked person from among yourselves.” the same in         2Thessalonians 3: 14-15 we read ” but if anyone is not obedient to our word through this letter, keep this one marked and stop associating with him, so that he may become ashamed. And yet do not consider him as an enemy but continue admonishing him as a brother”.

These seven examples are few among many passages that may tend to give way to contradiction but knowing that the bible is harmonious is not enough to cope with this figurative contradiction in our comprehension of the scripture, we need to integrate the fact that God almighty, full of wisdom and knowledge cannot carry a double standard. saying one thing and it contrary to the same category of people.

how to avoid giving way to the confusion ? the bible reader will simply need to attribute each of the contradicted verse to a different categories of people without trying to apply the seeming contradicted verses to the same categories of people.

as we explain spiritual matters with spiritual words (1corinthians 2:13) ,Let’s make an application with Example 3.

The first scripture of this example applies to the second through the sixth categories of people as mentioned above, because they are all exposed to the practice of sin and lawlessness. (1John 3:4) On the contrary, the second scripture of Example 3 cannot be applied to the same second through the sixth category of people. Instead it applied to the seventh category of people. because 1 john3:9 explains it this way: “Everyone who has been born from God does not practice sin, for His seed remains in such one, and he cannot practice sin, for he has been born from God.” The true God cannot discipline those whom he himself declared righteous. The word of God is harmonious in this aspect.

Most of the Bible messages are for the second to the seventh categories of people.

Some of these messages are for both the great crowd and foreordained ones.

Some of them are exclusively for the great crowd and some are exclusively for the foreordained ones as well.

The same as some of the bible passages are exclusive for the wicked one and others for devil and his demons. The same as some of those bible words are just for the presumptuous people and other passages for hypocrite people.

For example, confusion and contradiction occurs when the word addressed exclusively to the wicked one is instead applied to believers. Or, when applying the word exclusively addressed to the great crowd to the chosen ones. Etc…….

Based on these demonstrations, you can discern by yourself if the teaching or beliefs you base your faith on is in harmony with God’s view or men’s view.
