Let the word EXAMINE YOU before you EXAMINE IT. 

11/28 Daily Exhortation (Matt.6:11;Luke 11:3;Hebrews 3:13;10:25)…

Let us meditate and masticate upon this 11:28 this 11/28… 

1 Corinthians 11:28 (KJB) But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

And some pertinent 11:28’s here… 

Luke 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

Mark 11:28 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?

By what authority did Jesus operate? By His own. He is the very WORD OF GOD.

⚠️ DAILY JESUS WALK ALERT ⚠️ I quoted 2 Cor. 13:5 "Examine yourselves" this AM to Hope in a discussion and later see this resurrected charge! 

Focus passage: The bread points to Jesus’ body. Communion. But let’s get the full ramifications of this. Jesus said that He is the bread which came down from heaven (John 6). He is the manna. The word of God is bread (Luke 4:4; Matt. 4:4, etc.). And the church is called bread (His body) and a lump (1 Cor. 5, etc.). 

So, a man must examine himself to partake of the bread. Partaking unworthily, and not discerning the Lord’s body, is quite dangerous. 

The Bible is called “the fear of the Lord” in Psalms 19. A man should never partake of the Bible bread unworthily. 

Purge leaven before you handle that unleavened bread of the word of God... 

Be cautious how you HANDLE that sword. Back everything thing UP TO THE HILT OF THE SWORD of the word with BOOK, CHAPTER, AND VERSE. 

2 Corinthians 4:2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully…

Jeremiah 48:10 Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.

The word of God is likened to honey. If a person studies FOR THEIR OWN GLORY and NOT ZEALOUSLY AND JEALOUSLY for God’s glory, that honey will make them sick. 

Proverbs 25:16 Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it.

Proverbs 25:27 It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.

Psalm 131:1 Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.

Watch that PRIMITIVE PROBLEM OF PRIDE. The Bible is a Booby-trapped book per Isaiah 28. That TREACHEROUS TRUTH TRAP catches the self-prudent in their own craftiness. 

2 Peter 3:16 As also in all his (Paul’s) epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

James 1:21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with MEEKNESS the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

Hebrews 4:2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

In Luke 24, when the disciples supped with Jesus, and broke bread, He broke open the bread of the word and shewed Himself therein!

Luke 8:18 Take heed therefore how ye hear…

Approach the word unworthily, and you’ll get ensnared. Stand UNDER the word to UNDERSTAND the word. 

Examine yourself before you PARTAKE OF THE BREAD OF THE WORD, communion, and the local church (His Body), -r <3
