What would be the consequence for errors committed in ignorance?
Would that classification of failure somehow be a mitigating factor in our absolute innocence?
In the distant past, perhaps it was possible to have partial clemency on the basis of not exactly knowing?
However, Gods word says that time has gone by, and people will certainly reap what they are willingly sewing…
Built in to everyone is a conscience at the center of their core.
It instinctively informs without vagueness, what it is, the true God does abhor.
No complete escape from the gnawing that emanates from within.
Optimally operating, it is as a burning sensation, like having acid poured on the broken flesh, of our skin...
Of course the receptors of everyone’s moral sense does not function quite the same.
Some may be
semi-unaffected, by attempting to shift the blame…
The world at large teaches that ignorance is bliss...
However, wisdoms companion shrewdness, is the path of the one that many tragedies his life will surely avoid, and miss.
A blind man since birth will perhaps be in the same dark place he’s always known.
But even for him, honesty will illuminate his way, once he is instructed in truth, his heart will recognize it, down to the very marrow of his every bone.
So if in any doubt as to what is factually unerring in Gods point of view, urgently find out with accuracy what he has to say.
Always remembering, with God in matters of pure worship and innocence, there is really no grey...
