Ignorance is bliss?

1 Corinthians 15: 34
Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God….
 
Is ignorance really bliss, as many people believe?
 
Back in World War II, the Russians trained dogs with explosives attached to their backs, to prey upon German tanks. True story!
Because the dogs were trained only with Russian tanks, they didn’t know the difference between a Russian tank and a German tank.
I think you already know by now, what the outcome was.
Maybe ignorance isn’t bliss, after all?
 
Is there an area of your life, where sin constantly prevails?
Don’t play the ignorant game—especially not with God.
 
Well, I didn’t know what I was doing, was wrong!
I heard it once said a very long time ago….. “Ignorance of the law, won’t be any excuse in the end.”
 
As much as we might not want to hear it, some of us need to come back to our senses.
Remember, that at the end of our lives, our individual standard isn’t going to matter.
God’s standard for sin and righteous living, is the only standard that’s going to fly.
It’s also the standard, our lives will be measured by.
 
We Christians desperately need straight level answers, offered in love.
The most loving thing I could say to some of you is this….. “Don’t be ignorant of the devils schemes!” (Ephesians 6: 11)
 
I’m sure glad, that God accepts us ignoramuses back with loving arms…..
