Throughout my own spiritual studies, I have found
A Very Large Number Of Positive Commandments that God has exhorted us ( repeatedly ) to live by... and yet, for some strange reason, the vast majority of us have continually neglected to do so.
For instance, if we look up the word:
" Test " - in any decent
Biblical Concordance - you will find, among all of those others, the following scriptural passage....
In
Exodus Chapter 20, it ( quite honestly ) states:
" And Moses said to the people, ' Do Not Fear; For God Has Come To Test You, And That His Fear May Be Before You, So That You May Not Sin. '
So, The People [ Being Who ( And What ) They Spiritually Were ] stood afar off [ In The Foolish Hope That He Might Not Truly Know Them ]; but Moses [ Who Earnestly Desired A Greater Connection ] drew nearer to The Thick Darkness [ That Concealed The Glory Of God ] where God was [ In Order To Receive His Own True Blessing ]. " - Exodus 20:20-21.
And,
The Simple Truth is, that after more than 3500 intervening years,
' The People Of Israel Are Still Truthfully Avoiding His Own Spiritual Fellowship '... by, drawing their own imaginary lines in the sand; and ( however quite blatantly ) refusing to cross them!
What Is It That You Are So Inherently Afraid Of...
when,
God [ Himself ] has already atoned for all of your own sins?
