Let Us Consider

Hebrews 10:23-24 (KJV) "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised); 24 And let us CONSIDER one another to provoke unto love and to good works."

Paul was writing this to the people of God. We know this by what he said in verse 19 of this same chapter. Paul started verse 19 by saying, "Having therefore, Brethren..." The Brethren are the Born Again Saints of God. In verses 23 and 24 Paul is pointing out what the AIM of a child of God should be, or should I say, it is what a child of God should purpose in there heart and life, in their walk, in their talk, in their behavior.

To some readers of this passage of scripture, I believe that Paul was and is instructing the Babes in Christ when he wrote, "Let us CONSIDER." Paul was and is instructing the young Christians that this should be a part of their Christian character. Now to those readers that are off the milk and on the meat I believe Paul is instructing those Christians as to say to them, if this is not a part of your character, if this is not the way you walk, talk, or behave, YOU SHOULD, "Let US CONSIDER." There is something about this word that I think is very important for every Christians to understand FULLY.

The word, CONSIDER, is the root word to a very good word and to a very bad word. Both words that come from the word "Consider" are a part of every heart, Saved or Lost. Those two words are "Considerate and Inconsiderate." The word "Considerate" is a word of love, the word "Inconsiderate" is just the opposite from "Considerate" and it is a word of HATE. Inside every Christian you will find these two words,

or maybe I should say these two characters abide and it is the choice of every individual which one of these two words will be shown in every aspect of their lives. But many times Christians choose to allow the spirit of Inconsideration to POP UP in their lives which reflect a breakdown of their Christian walk. It shows that they are still on milk; it shows that they have a heart of inconsideration.
