Summary
There are many things associated with that word bliss, aren't there? Have you used the phrase, ignorance is bliss when you were living in that time before you discovered a problem existed? He said intelligent people understand that there are things that they don't know, that they have to rely on good advice from others, that they have to seek out people that aren't in their area to instruct them. The problem with their living in this darkened state, in the futility of their mind, Paul zeros in and he says, it's a problem of ignorance. But the temptation lurks doesn't it to simply accept ignorance, accept ignorance of scripture, ignorance of salvation, ignorance of the Savior, ignorance of the ways of God, ignorance of God's plan for us, ignorance of what God desires for us and we can go about our daily activities. That tells us that when it says to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, to be created according to the likeness of God and through righteousness and holiness, that that's not our work, that's God's work and how does God do that?
