My People Are Destroyed For Lack Of Knowledge...

Hosea 4:6 ~ My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (Revelation knowledge). Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you from being priest to Me. Since you have forgotten the Law of your God, I will also forget your sons, even I. 

Please read this verse in the New Covenant Spirit by filtering this verse through the finished work of Christ. We are destroyed by our ignorance and unbelief... We disqualified  ourselves to become His priests by our own effort and righteousness. His priest is a man righteous by faith. 

We have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places (Ephesians 1:3) and even all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and virtue (2 Peter 1:3).

Our ignorance and unbelief rob away the abundant life that Jesus died to give us! It makes more sense to read this verse now...The thief does not come except to STEAL and to KILL and to DESTROY. I have come so that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10) 

Do not try to figure out how it was stolen... The word "Steal" means taken away without our knowledge! When we believe in the Word of Christ, the Spirit of wisdom and revelation will help us to discern and understand the thing of the Spirit!

This is the work of God, that you believe on Him whom He has sent (John 6:29).
