24/7 DOXA Content, 18th June-BEWARE OF HUMAN PHILOSOPHY
____________________________________
FOCAL TEXT: Colossians 2 vs 8
►► “Beware lest any man spoils you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”~》NKJV》

GLORIOUS greetings, Cherished one. To spoil means to lead away as booty. It connotes the idea of being taken captive as a slave or booty after a battle in a war. So he warns you to beware so that you are not robbed from the rich treasures in the Gospel; or no one strip you off your spiritual armour or take away from you the truths and doctrines of Christ. We are admonished to beware of human philosophy because it has the tendency to spoil.
Philosophy simply means the love of wisdom. In academia, it is a discipline that seeks truth through reasoning rather than empiricism. It largely relies on intellectualism and human wisdom and not after the wisdom of Christ. Note, the Apostle does not mean to condemn all arts and sciences as useless but he warns against false philosophies and notions about the Christ, His gospel and finished works.
Some philosophers count the truth of the gospel as foolish and nonsense. Beware of such philosophies. Most human philosophies do not take into consideration the wisdom or the word of God. Come back to Jesus Christ and His rich gospel if you have been deceived by any human philosophies or intellectualism. Refuse to be robbed by human philosophy. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always.
