Reprobate

One of the hardest individuals to deal with is one with a REPROBATE MIND.  

Many times this type have had encounters and knowledge of the Lord but did not allow Holiness to become a part of their daily lifestyle.

They did not fully and unconditionally love the Lord.

Without unconditional love operating offence sets in and Christ now becomes their stumbling stone and rock of offence.

Because they have knowledge they will debate.

Because they at one point knew the Lord they will speak on times past.

Because they love pleasures more than the Lord they draw others into lust instead of holiness.

They will display knowledge in a loud boasting more than a display of living that knowledge.

They live in torment having been handed over to a debased mind and way of living.

They hold the truth in unrighteousness.

They do not Glorify the Lord.

They are unthankful.

They do not like to retain God in their knowledge, 

They are given over to a reprobate mind.

Reprobate -not standing the test, not approved

properly used of metals and coins.

that which does not prove itself such as it ought

unfit, unapproved, that is, rejected ; by implication worthless (literally or morally): - castaway, rejected.

Jeremiah 6:30 speaks of Reprobate Silver.

It represents the inability or unwillingness to separate from the baser things to become refined and purified.

It becomes unprofitable because it is mixed with contaminated metals 

They do those things which are not convenient.

Meaning those things that are not fit, lawful or lined up with the Ways of the Lord.

 

They are filled with all unrighteousness.

They are filled with fornication

They are filled with wickedness.

They are filled with covetousness.

They are filled with maliciousness.

They are full of envy.

They are full of murder.

They are full of debate.

They are full of  deceit.

They are whisperers,

They are Backbiters.

They are haters of God.

They are despiteful.

They are proud.

They are boasters.

They are inventors of evil things.

They are disobedient to parents.

They are without understanding.

Use wisdom as this type will speak the TRUTH but with malicious intentions.

We must discern if an individual has been handed over to wrath. 

 Romans 1:18  For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

It is possible to experience liberty by repenting and maintaining a daily walk with Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit.
