Title: Obstinately, irreversably determined to resist God     
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And even as they did not like to retain God in their Knowledge, God gave them over to a Reprobate Mind, to do those things which are not convenient; - Rom 1:28
After falling so low in the downward spiral, a person eventually gets to the point where they are unreachable by the Truth .     They end up with a Reprobate Mind .   

Examine yourselves, whether you be in the Faith; Prove your own selves.      Know you not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except you be reprobates? - 2Co 13:5
Our Faith is defined solely by the Word ( Luk 4:4 ).     

Trusting your own Thoughts and Emotions is deadly ( Gen 3:6 ).     

Any time and every time we Hear, Believe, Receive and Do things that conflict with the Word Of God we suffer loss, missing out on some aspect of Abundant Life ( Joh 10:10 ).     

Whenever you examine anything you must have a standard by which to measure.     
If you are measuring length you use a ruler.     
If you are measuring weight you use scales.     
If you are measuring your Spiritual Health you use the Word .     

See He Be Re Do for further explanation of the examination to which Paul refers.   

But I Trust that you shall Know that we are not reprobates. - 2Co 13:6

Now I Pray to God that you do no Evil; not that we should appear approved, but that you should do that which is Honest, though we be as reprobates. - 2Co 13:7

Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the Truth: men of Corrupt minds, Reprobate concerning the Faith .    - 2Ti 3:8
Your Faith is about you being In Christ by virtue of Christ In You .   

They Profess that they Know God; but in Works they Deny him, being Abominable, and Disobedient, and unto every Good Work Reprobate .    - Tit 1:16
It is the Truth that sets us Free and the Holy Spirit who abide in Truth that empowers us to do Good Works, Those who Pervert the Truth cannot produce Good Works .
