Bible Study Notebook

 

 

3 We are bound [opheilo] to thank [eucharisteo] God [theos] always [pantote] for [peri] you, [humon] brethren, [adelphos] as [kathos] it is [esti] meet, [axios] because [hoti] that your [humon] faith [pistis] groweth exceedingly, [huperauxano] and [kai] the charity [agape] of every [hekastos] one [heis] of you [humon] all [pas] toward [eis] each other [allelon] aboundeth; [pleonazo]   KJV-Interlinear

 

 

3 We ought always to give thanks to God for you, brethren, as is only fitting, because your faith is greatly enlarged, and the love of each one of you toward one another grows ever greater;     NASB

 

 

All thanks for anything in life, is owing, even obligated from us, toward God, who is the source of all things good and true.

 

The faith which develops within people, comes only from doctrine learned, understood and applied in their lives. This doctrine, comes from God alone and from no other source. 

 

Life’s experiences, personal achievements, luck or hustle, even your own intellectual abilities to figure things out, are not a source of wisdom, if doctrine is excluded.  Many are the plans of man, but all are nothing more than foolishness when truth is excluded.

 

Faith grows from knowledge of Bible doctrine.Faith develops from ones advancement toward spiritual maturity.

 

And while the world and the carnal life is obsessed with the perceptions of the five senses for orientation to life, the spiritual life uses something, faith, which has no measurable or detectable object, and yet faith is the greater.

 

All blessing comes to humanity from God.All blessing comes to humanity through Christ.All blessing comes to humanity through mature believers.All blessing comes to humanity by means of their association with believers who live on planet earth.

 

With greater spiritual growth, comes greater faith, comes greater blessing from God, and that benefits us all weather directly or indirectly.

 

Therefore, everything that we are and have, comes to us from God and it is to Him that we owe our thanks for our entire existence.

End Of Lesson

Study to show thyself approved (mature) unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (studying/discerning), the Word of truth.
