It doesnt matter how up-to-date you are in new revelations…
“It doesnt matter how up-to-date you are in new revelations from the many seminars and Bible schools youve attended or how many books youve read or even how many hours you pray and study. If you are offended and in unforgiveness and refuse to repent of this sin, you have not come to the knowledge of the truth. You are deceived, and you confuse others with your hypocritical lifestyle. No matter what the revelation, your fruit tells a different story. Youll become a spring spewing out bitter waters that will bring deception, not truth.”
