Romans Part XVIII: Dangerous Ignorance

“Ignorance is one of the scariest things out there, because those of us who are most ignorant are also the ones who often don't know it or don't want to admit it,” said Vera Nazarian. The Bible distinguishes between willful and unwitting ignorance (cf. Num. 15:27; 2 Pet. 3:5), but makes no distinction in the consequences of ignorance. Whether we’re talking about ignorance of sin or ignorance of God’s will (the two are inseparable, are they not?), the end result is condemnation. Never once in Scripture do we find that there is blessing to be had in ignorance.
