If you are looking for a Thread that hates the bible or pretends to correct it, then this isn't it.
So, what i thought i would do is offer the student of the word, who loves the word of God, some things to consider.
-
We are to "study to show ourselves approved unto God"..... The bible., as this is the word of God.
The idea is, to discern it, and that is not reading it.
Discerning, is not reading.
Discerning is, in the context of : "rightly dividing",= ""how you study to show yourself approved, to God"
Ive noticed that religious people who find the bible closed to them, like to say that there are errors in it, or that its full of contraditions.
And of course, if you can't discern it, the you will find it to confuse you, and that will never change until..
1. You are born again
2. You give the word of God, respect and devotion.
Now...When i listen to the word of God, as im studying, i hear what it's telling me/showing me.
That's spiritual discernment, happening.
I hear the verses by comparing them to other verses, to get the context.
As im "comparing scriptures with scriptures", the Word in me who is Christ, reveals the revelation.
So, its by study and comparing that Christ in me reveals what the verses MEAN, as "rightly dividing", which is : spiritual discernment.
And if you are born again, and not just religious and water baptized, the same Christ who is "all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" who is "Christ IN YOU the hope of Glory", will also reveal the same to you.
Saint when you study the bible, when you touch it, be sure to give it reverence, as it contains the TRUTH, and Jesus is the Truth..."thy word IS TRUTH".
That the BIBLE.
I dont try to understand it, i only listen to it, and Christ in me shows me the revelation that is the true Light.
I study the word, but what im doing is listening to it, with my Spiritual eyes.
This is the "eyes of my enlightenment".....my spiritual eyes.
I do this with everything. With people, with decisions.....everything.
'"he that is spiritual, judges all things".
When i respond to a person here, i am seeing them with my spiritual eyes.
I read what they write, what you write, and i see what you believe, with my spiritual eyes.
----------------------------------
Now.....Think of bible study.... like this.
God is "A'" Spirit. The word of God, the Holy Bible, is "spirit and truth".
To understand the word of God, is not about reading it, but its about it being revealed inside you., spiritually by the WORD who is inside you.
How does this happen?
= The word of God, is SPIRIT and TRUTH.
The born again are SPIRITUALLY born again.
Jesus in the born again, is the Spirit of God..."Christ is that Spirit".
Notice that "spirit" is the common denominator...
So, how do you read what is spirit and truth?
Not with your human eyes, but with your spirit that is joined to the One who created the word of God, as Spirit and Truth.
Here is an analogy...
In Radio you have FM and AM.
If you want to listen to FM, you dont turn on the AM seting.
So, the BIBLE is a Frequency, and the frequency, is SPIRIT and TRUTH.
So, you connect with this inner frequency, using your born again spirit and not by the natural mind.
And you can hear and read what these who are not born again say...when they rant about "contradictions, errors, ambiguous"", ...and so forth, as in their spiritual darkness they trip over the bible and hit their carnal heads on it.
Listen...
The natural mind is the wrong frequency, and when you use that to try to understand the spiritual word of God, you become a heretic in your belief system
Forums are infected with these carnal people because that is all they can do.
Pulpits are deceiving people, because they can't spiritually discern the word.
This is how most denominations begin and continue.
This is the Devil hard at work manufacturing lies as truth.
Reader.....The Holy Spirit, that discerns the Spiritual = is the right frequency dialed in, and that is how the word is revealed to you., only. ... = by God's Spirit, as Light to you, that is revelation.
Receiving the revelation, is how you study the bible.
-------------------------------------------------------
When God opens your spiritual eyes to the LIGHT of the word, then that is the spirit of Christ in the born again, revealing it as spiritual discernment.....as the Light of revelation.
The word of God is spiritually discerned, not read like its a dictionary.
What actually happens, if you are born again, and not just water baptized thinking you are....is that Christ in you, reveals the word to your spirit as revelation, and that is the discernment actually happening.
So, what i thought i would do is offer the student of the word, who loves the word of God, some things to consider.
