I think that it would do us all well to sit down and take the necessary time to solidify that any biblical reference of “us” is actually applicable, scripturally. The entire Word speaks to a division among men. There are evil. There are righteous. There are lawless and lawful. There are those who are set apart unto Yahweh and His purposes and there are those of the world.
One cannot be both.
How do we today be confident, and yet fair, to determine if the statements and promises made within the Word actually do apply to us? How do we know the camp that we reside in? How can we avoid assuming that we’re always the “good guy” that Father is for and not against? The same way that men always have. We must know Yahweh’s criteria. We must study His Ways, learn Them and then deliberately choose to obey.
Then,
and only then, will we begin to move towards rightly viewing the many uses of “us”
personally. So, the next time that you read “we” and “us”, or “them”, please
take the time to be sure which camp you reside in. Blessings and favor are not
automatic, friend. This is a lifelong endeavor. Selah.
