So true Dennis,
We all should keep Isaiah 8:20 in mind whenever we meditate on spiritual things, we cannot trust our natural heart, inclinations or feelings;
Isa 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
Ecc 9:3 This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil and madness is in their heart while they live and after that they go to the dead.
Jer 3:17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.
Jer 7:24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart and went backward and not forward.
Jer 11:8 Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but they did them not.
Jer 13:10 This evil people, which refuse to hear my words, which walk in the imagination of their heart and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.
Jer 14:14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spoke unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination and a thing of naught and the deceit of their heart.
Jer 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Jer 23:17 They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.
Mat 15:19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
There is so much wisdom to be mined from the Word of God, we have yet to scratch the surface, why do we need unscriptural "extra revelations" when there is so much more to discover within His Word?
Peace,
Joe
