You must be in fellowship prior to your Bible study, so that the spiritual information you receive can become a source, of blessing to your soul and produce spiritual growth. Daily Bible Study Psalm 37:37 http://www.dailybiblestudy.org
37 Mark [shamar] the perfect [tam] man, and behold [ra'ah] the upright [yashar]: for the end ['achariyth] of that man ['iysh] is peace [shalowm]. KJV-Interlinear
37 Mark the blameless and behold the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace. ESV
The word mark, means to observe, or to take notice. While in the previous verses the Psalm has been examining those who are wicked and prosperous, now the Psalm turns to the righteous man and examines his life for a comparison. What is being compared or examined, is the entire life or course of life, for each of these categories of people, namely wicked versus righteous. The term wicked, describes the individual who does not have a spiritual life, or who does not function in the spiritual life, and consequently has no productive spiritual life. The terms of blameless and upright, refer to the spiritually mature believer. Remember we are examining the entire life of the believer, so this refers to the individual who has studied and learned and grown up in their spiritual life, and has advanced to maturity. The reference to, the man of peace, is an attribute of maturity. So there is a huge contrast between the wicked, or the non-spiritually active person, as opposed to the consistently spiritually active person. The wicked can live and function in this life, and even have a prosperous and successful life, as far as the terms of the world go. That is possible because the laws of divine establishment, were put in place for all people regardless of whether they are Christian or not. Economics applies to everyone. But at the end of their life, the question is, what do they really have. And of course we already know that the wicked person, when it comes to the end of their life, has nothing. The spiritually mature person, may or may not have worldly possessions or prosperity, but the real assets of life, are in the soul. And Bible doctrine has greater value than anything in this world, even if you accumulated everything in the world throughout history. The real possession or treasure of value, is Bible doctrine. And when you have learned it, and understood it, and utilize it throughout your life, then you have assimilated doctrine into your soul, and it becomes a part of your very essence. Also, Bible doctrine is permanent and eternal. In this life you can’t measure its value, or is quantity. But when eternity comes around, and when you face Jesus Christ, at the Judgment Seat of Christ, for your evaluation, then the rewards handed out will be the perfect measure of the value of the doctrine contained within the soul of the spiritually mature believer. And that value is infinite. You cannot say that about anything in this world. These studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time. The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination. But you have to decide to make that commitment. No one else can study for you. You have to do that yourself.
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. |
