Philippians 2:3
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or empty pride, but in humility consider others more important than yourselves.

This scripture has just really spoken to me. It’s only a couple of sentences, but it’s a two edged sword that divides soul and spirit.

Isaiah 7:9

“Unless your faith is firm,

I cannot make you stand firm”.

1 Thessalonians 5:11

11 Therefore encourage and comfort one another and build up one another, just as you are doing.

 

First thessalonians chapter four verse eighteen .

Wherefore comfort another with these words .    And what words were those ,  read from verses thirteen through seventeen .

ALL talking about the COMING DAY OF OUR KING and the great HOPE for the true saints ON HIS DAY , but woe unto those who rejected HIM on that day .

Lambs , more than ever should be watching and waiting .   And having all hope in the COMING of OUR LORD .  OH the very day

in which the lambs shall kneel before THE KING and lay their crowns at HIS FEET .  FOR HE ALONE was and is the ONLY REASON they were saved .

More than ever let us focus on the true unity and not the dead unity .

Here is an analogy of the wrong unity .

Those who put lets get along and have unity , BEFORE SOUND DOCTRINE and all that JESUS did teach and the apostels taught

are like unto men who are in a big cart that is fasting sinking in the mire .  And they holler one to the other , what shall we do

and they say ,  LET us put the sound doctrine  horse behind this cart and we shall be saved . YES let people see the unity cart and they will enter in

let us focus on getting along and thus let us put the JESUS only and sound doctrine Horse behind the cart so as not to scare off the passengers who enter in .

But alas these will not save their cart , and all on it will sink in the mire .    Instead preach YE JESUS , all his teachings , all the apostels teachings

and that HORSE OF TRUTH shall LEAD the cart OUT OF THE MIRE and it wont SINK .    AKA , PUT JESUS and all sound doctrine FIRST and have unity WITH OTHERS WHO DO THE SAME .

LEAP UP SISTER .  let all leap up and praise OUR KING .

What a gem dear sister .

And what a beauty this is ,

watch closely and enjoy this too .

UNLESS YOUR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST IS FIRM ,   I CANNOT MAKE YE STAND FIRM and its but sinking sand on which the whole house shall sink .

OH standing ON THE TRUE STONE and HIS EVERY WORD ,   keeps a lamb strong , for his or her faith , IS ONLY IN JESUS CHRIST and that is one safe and happy lamb .

Seeking a definition of edification and it's parameter or limit  I came across this little notation as I looked up Spurgeon.

"When Handel's oratorio of the "Messiah" had won the admiration of many of the great, Lord Kinnoul took occasion to pay him some compliments on the noble entertainment which he had lately given the town. "My lord," said Handel, "I should be sorry if I only entertained them; I wish to make them better." It is to be feared that many speechmakers at public meetings could not say as much; and yet how dare any of us waste the time of our fellow-immortals in mere amusing talk! If we have nothing to speak to edification, hew much better to hold our tongue!

(C. H. Spurgeon.)"

Seems to me that was Paul's  God inspired instruction to the church body too. For 1 Corinthians 14 in it's entirety seems a lesson  in edification, what it is  and what it is not.
