Guilty Ignorance
Ephesians 4:18
Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them…


There is also an affected ignorance, such a one as is contracted by a wilful neglect of the means; and this is not excusing but condemning...In the midst of light to be in darkness; for an Israel to have an Egypt in a Goschen; this is highly provoking, and may justly cause God to lay hold on vengeance.

(Dr. South.)
