Peter tells us knowledge is one of the things in life that needs an additive. Once you have knowledge you must follow through with it, “Then shall we know, [if] we follow on to know the LORD.” Doing something follows knowing something: James writes, “Him that knoweth to do good…” Jesus tells us the servant who knows, but doesn’t do anything with that knowledge, well, that is bad news for him or her.
Daniel records for us, at “the time of the end… knowledge shall be increased.” There is an eerie thirst for knowledge today. People want it just for the sake of having it; but they have no intention of doing anything with it. Dr. Bob Jones Sr. used to say, “We have enough brains to damn the world.” I think we need to put a temporary hold on knowledge until we catch up by using what we already have.
