Your ear is the gateway to your soul. It’s also the gateway to corrupt your soul. Your eye is the gateway to corrupt your mind. What you see freezes in your mind.

Luke 8:18, “Be careful therefore how you hear or how you listen. For to him who has spiritual knowledge will more be given; and from him who does not have spiritual knowledge, even what he thinks and guesses and supposes that he has will be taken away.”

There is a total need to understand how you listen and how you hear. There are two sides. Take heed what you hear and how you hear. So, those of you who come occasionally and try to hear something, you’re not being able to consistently build up your faith. And, what you hear is stolen by the end of the week.

Look! The lie is coming in from every source: TV, phone, movies, co-workers. People are repeating what’s a lie. Jesus was saying that when you’re an occasional hearer, you just don’t get enough spiritual fortitude to clean your ear out, and you can’t hear God.

 There is no difference today than in Jesus’ day, as described by the disciples in the Book of Acts chapter 13. A problem arose, because there were people who were hearing, and there were those who were not hearing, and it was causing a separation. It’s happening in America and in the Church, today. The Word of God is becoming like honey to some people, and to others it’s becoming something of an offense. So, even in Christianity they’re choosing sides.
