Confusing communication or misunderstandings can cause drifting from the truth. To avoid spiritual confusion, all followers of Jesus need to be complete in Christ. Being complete in Christ means we are lacking in nothing spiritually.
Key Points:
- To avoid spiritual confusion, we must be filled with spiritual insight. We need to read Scripture and ask God to fill us with insight to live in a way that pleases Him.
- We must bear fruit in every good work through character, willingness, and endurance. Our character shapes what we do and vice versa. Willingness means acting when opportunities arise. Endurance is continuing no matter what through patience and long-suffering.
- We avoid confusion by being thankful in all circumstances. Thankfulness brings joy that is our strength. When we focus on thanking God, we gain spiritual insight.
When we put these into practice in our daily lives, God can use us to make a difference and fulfill His purpose for us.
