Elisha Vision – Commentary

What a concept! There are some people who are unable to grasp truth, even if it is right in front of them.  It is a condition that predictably results from a certain lifestyle. Those who practice specific behaviors will inevitably be blinded to truth. Have you been frustrated by people who see current events but draw completely illogical conclusions bearing no resemblance to the truth? It seems common sense to understand, but they have really weird interpretations of what should be obvious.

“always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.”  2 Timothy 3:7

This is a condition that is the end result of resisting God, resisting truth. Rebellion from God is resisting truth since He is truth. Jesus is “the way, the truth, and the life.” The way of rebellion leads to a total inability to recognize truth. Someone who has reached that condition simply cannot know truth. What a terrible place to be! Here are a few of the behaviors that lead to that blind condition. These are drawn from the larger context of 2 Timothy 3.

“But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!”  2 Timothy 3:1-5.

You do not want to see yourself in that list! Lord help us to love truth!

“these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all,”  2 Timothy 3:8-9.

Yes, those who are deceived will be exposed, but those who love the truth will be established in God and His righteousness through the Messiah Yeshua, Jesus Christ. Hang in there in faith. Don’t give up. Stay true to the Person who is truth. All of this faith walk is on the sure foundation of the Bible revelation of who Yehovah God is and who the Messiah is. Keep the faith!

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”  2 Timothy 316-17.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and rain as Israel enters the rainy season.
