From the very beginning, God did not want man to be an expert on how to "call a sin a sin" -- the knowledge of good and evil. In the garden, He did not want Adam and Eve to know, or be concerned with, the difference between "good and evil". He commanded them to stay away from it!
When it comes to Jesus, the church needs to "call a Savior a Savior" and trust Him for our righteousness and salvation! Believe that He took away ALL of your sin! Believe that faith has placed you firmly in Him and that He is your wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, redemption and peace with God! (1 Cor. 1:30).
When it comes to the Spirit, the church needs to "call a Teacher a Teacher" and trust Him to write on our hearts and minds, comfort us, speak of Jesus and guide us into Truth! Listen to Him. When He tells you what to do, do it!
When it comes to God, the church needs to "call a Father a Father" and know that He will correct us when we need it, be merciful to our iniquities, remember our sin no more and never leave or forsake us! Know He loves you! Have faith in Him.
