Study goes beyond even the blessedness of simply reading and hearing the prophecies.
Study, in this instance, comes from the Greek word spoudazo , which means to exert one's self, endeavour, or give diligence. After all, to know today what will happen tomorrow should give the Saints a staggering advantage over the Enemy in strategically and tactically planning the advance of the Gospel. Stop and consider. If the Saints are truly led of the same Spirit that converts the Lost, then we will know when the Father has planned our departure. But, as important as our concern for the Lost, we need to recognize that the Spirit of God must complete the Work of Grace in us that He began at our conversion.
