Focus on Christ!!!

Please, brothers and sisters, do not allow yourselves to be swept away by this thing called "Q."

What if it were true which I have grave doubts about, now what? What are those listening to "Q" going to do with the information they think they have that they cannot prove?

There is such a thing as useless knowledge for the sake of appearing superior, as having special knowledge.

Placing one's trust in an anonymous source that purports to have secret knowledge is akin to Gnosticism, to value knowledge for its own sake, foregoing any purpose for actions.

As born again believers we can trust the Bible every day for everything and we can trust the Holy Spirit to guide and lead us without even knowing the details of why we are doing something.

2 Corinthians 4:18

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

This scripture in 2 Corinthians is not speaking about believing whatever other people tell us. The meaning in context is that we believe God even when we do not see a purpose and even when we do not see results.

We do not need to know all the hidden things of the world to walk with Christ. We can trust that He will tell us what we need to know when we need to know it. This is what faith is all about, trusting Christ every day for all things. We start by knowing the Bible deeply.

If believers would spend more time in the Bible seeking the Face of God in prayer and obeying what He tells them, they would have no need of political secret knowledge. Sadly so many are getting swept up in the frenzy of digging up the dirty secrets of the political world they speak far more of what they think they have found than they do on the wisdom of Christ.

Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart

And do not lean on your own understanding.

6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He will make your paths straight."

Psalm 37:4-5 "4 Delight yourself in the Lord;

And He will give you the desires of your heart.

5 Commit your way to the Lord,

Trust also in Him, and He will do it."

Psalm 33:20 "Our soul waits for the Lord;

He is our help and our shield."

Isaiah 26:3 “The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace,

Because he trusts in You."

Isaiah 12:2 “Behold, God is my salvation,

I will trust and not be afraid;

For the Lord God is my strength and song,"

And He has become my salvation.”

Psalm 9:10 "10 And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

Psalm 56:3 "When I am afraid,

I will put my trust in You."

Jeremiah 17:7 "“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord

And whose trust is the Lord."

Proverbs 29:25 "The fear of man brings a snare,

But he who trusts in the Lord will be exalted."

Psalm 28:7 "The Lord is my strength and my shield;

My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped;

Therefore my heart exults,

And with my song, I shall thank Him."

These verses are only a few encouraging verses that give us direction to keep our eyes focused continually on the Lord. We do not need to know all the evil going on in the world. We are commanded to expose false prophets in the church but we are not commanded to know all the deep dark secrets of what evil people are doing in the world.

James 1:26-27 "26 If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless. 27 Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained [b]by the world."

Ephesians 5:11-13 "…11 Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that is illuminated becomes a light itself.…"

God tells us to expose evil when we encounter it but He does not tell us to go looking for the evil to know all about it.

Ephesians 5:3-7

King James Version

3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;

4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

7 Be not ye, therefore, partakers with them.

2 Corinthians 6:16-18 "…16 What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.”

17“Therefore come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”

18 And: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty."

May we as born again believers set our minds continually on this:

Philippians 4:7-9 "7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think on these things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me, put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.…"

One cannot go wrong when our mind is focused daily on Christ as we pursue Him.
