“To write the same things to you, to me is not irksome, but for you it is safe.”  Phil. 3:1

 Imparting knowledge so that lives can make needful changes to come into right relationship with eternal things. The human mind has need of this because our ways are not His ways, our thoughts are His thoughts.

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Isa. 55:8-9

“O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!”  Rom. 11:33
