We Must Be Reminded

2 Peter 3:1-2  

"This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which

I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: That ye 

may be mindful of the words which were spoken 

before by the holy prophets, and of the 

commandment of us the apostles 

of the Lord and Saviour:" 

    Here Paul is talking about the principles of preaching. He is reminding us that it is necessary to have Scripture said over and over again to get it embedded in our minds. Having God's word repeated over and over is not weariness, but safe as Paul said in (Philippians 3:1), " Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe."

   My Friends, We are all guilty of wanting to hear new things, when what is needed is to hear repetition of the eternal truths which we so quickly forget and we so often refuse to see. There are certain foods that we don't get tired of, that's necessary for our daily sustenance that are set before us every day. We speak about a man's daily bread and there are certain great Christian truths which have to be repeated again and again and must never be pushed to the back in the desire for other things of much less importance.

Amen!
