2 Timothy 2: 15New King James Version (NKJV)

15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.

Ignorance accounts for today’s tragic plights among the saints.

Everyone’s opinion ... floats on the polluted waters.

Is that water standing still ... so even fish there smother

Suffocated by man lifelessness ... so far away from the Potter

Believers who are deceived are oft fully “surrendered” Christians.

Spiritually more advanced ... than the ordinary kind.

They strive to obey the Master ... no matter what the cost

As they stumble into passivity ... hoping the “more” to find.

They know not how to cooperate ... with the Lord God Almighty.

They are fully committed ... and disregard their own interest.

They are most eager to obey orders and make you surely wonder,

Why God does not protect them ... are not motives “pure” at best?

How can God permit then ... for faithful seekers to be deceived?

Is it because they don’t recognize ... the Pearl of Great Price?

Did they invest the “all” they had ... into the artificial

Thinking that they found The Truth but were buying satan’s lies?
