God Makes Them Grow Into Instruments of Righteousness Who Are Committed to Him ㅡ
“Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.” (Romans 6:13-14)
He whose mind is enlightened by the opening of God’s word to his understanding will realize his responsibility to God and to the world, and he will feel that his talents must be developed in a way that will produce the very best results;
for he is to “show forth the praises” of Him who has called him “out of darkness into His marvelous light.” (1 Peter 2:9).
While growing in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, he will realize his own imperfections, he will feel his real ignorance, and he will seek constantly to preserve and put to the stretch his powers of mind, that he may become an intelligent Christian.
The faculties devoted unreservedly to God, under the guidance of the divine Spirit, develop steadily and harmoniously.
Devotion and piety establish so close a relation between Jesus and His disciples that the Christian becomes like Him.
Through the power of God, his weak, vacillating character becomes changed to one of strength and steadfastness.
He becomes a person of sound principle, clear perception, and reliable, well-balanced judgment.
Having a connection with God, the source of light and understanding, his views, unbiased by his own preconceived opinions, become broader, his discernment more penetrative and farseeing.
The knowledge of God, the understanding of His revealed will, as far as human minds can grasp it, will, when received into the character, make efficient men.
