16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: - Galatians 1:16.
If you still have that special feeling for the Old Testament as far as God dealing with people, you need to read your bible and figure out where they failed and do something different so you won't fail. If you have a point to prove that men were being what God had planned for humanity but they got sidetracked and now we have a better chance at keeping law or proving God, or living right as rain then you need to read your Old Testament bible instructions and do different because everyone we read about was a miserable failure. So you need to see where you can go right this time, that would be easy it is written how they failed, sinned, just don't do what they did!
Does that sound familiar, sounds like some preacher's that want to keep the flock in-line. You should be glad that theologians didn't write your bible because you would never be what God intended you be from the foundations of the world. Now I have theologian friends, not many, but a couple I consider friends and some through the years I've debated. I don't mean to pick on theologians and our best scholars but they seem to make the best examples for understanding. Understanding will always have revelation (the eyes of your understanding) connected to it, there will be nothing else in your repertoire of knowledge like revelation you recieve from the Holyspirit concerning scripture.
Can I say this in defense of all knowledge; no matter where it comes from or what it does to you, anyone around you, or to change the world. If it does not see 'Christ in you as life' it is not the knowledge that God intended you have before the foundations of the world.
We may say "well God is using my education," yes he may be but what is your knowledge saying. If you're knowledge is anything other than "Christ knowledge" then knowledge (Christ knowledge) is still being worked into the believer. The final outcome for a believer is knowledge because we live by knowledge. I don't know what we look for sometime but the end of the journey (the end of the journey is just beginning when you see Christ as life for your knowledge) is a Christ-person with Christ life knowledge. It really is that simple but the experience will be over your life span.
What does that mean; you come to revelation (Spirit taught knowledge) and now the journey really begins. The thing about revelation knowledge is; the more revelation you recieve the more you realize you don't know. Revelation helps the believer to relax and sit back and recieve from the Holyspirit more easily because now they understand what it takes to see or understand the things of God. They know they can't do it on their own, it has to come by Spirit taught knowledge or they will not know. Revelation will be like the pioneers of old for you, it will be a road you have never been on. The thing is others are on it or have been on it and you just discover it. So it is not a journey alone and just like our Apostle Paul said "you will know it" flesh and blood will not have to confirm it to you you will know. How do we know? Because it has 'Christ in you' as it's everything and you are not the main theme anymore. Happy travels.
