Is it possible to understand the bible?
“All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”, 2 Timothy 3:16.
The wisdom belongs to the Lord. Therefore, ask wisdom and it shall be given unto you. There is no impossible with God. To Him, with Him and for Him everything is possible. Ask and you shall received, seek and you shall find, knock and the door will be open for you. To those who seek, he will find, to those who ask, it shall be given and to those who ask wisdom, He will give understanding. Many people thought that the bible is hard to understand. But contrary to that belief, Bible is the easiest way to learn and understand, if, however, you’re asking guidance and understanding from the Lord.
The Lord, Himself will open the door to your heart and let you understand, the power of the scripture.”For the Lord gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding”, Proverbs 2:6.
There is no impossible for God. He can give you the power of understanding. He will provide the answer to every question in your heart. What is knowledge? What is understanding? “For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul,” Proverbs 2:10. Scripture is a powerful word, empowered by God. His Holy Spirit roved around the earth to make His words “living and active.” Hebrews 4:12. Cuts people’s hearts as well.
Atheist believed that Bible is just another type of book written to explained the event of the past. If you figure it out, there were many books in the past written by many geniuses and scholars, but did not last tlong, whilst the Bible existed long before everyone was born. It is the beginning. It’s because this book is powered by God, “living and active”.
“For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke by God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit”, 2 Peter 1:20, which means God was in the context of the scipture and in each pages and chapters of the Bible. Thus, if you ask him the will to guide you toward understanding, he will direct your path and guide you in a right directions. Understanding is the main key to the scripture. God will open each heart in order for you to understand.
Is it possible to understand the Bible. Absolutely. What shall you do to make it more clear to you?
- First, pray. Prayer is the only means of communication you have with God. So, open your heart through prayer and it will guide you towards understanding.
- Second, constant studying. Open your bible everyday. Make an effort to study. Be like a student and God will be your teacher. Obey God’s word and wisdom will flow like a stream.
- Third, have someone with you. A counselor for example. Be humble in asking what you need to ask. Even before, discipling partner is very common to the first century Christian.
Bible is not to question science but to explain the condition of human heart. God always reach out people’s heart in the very beginning. In Isaiah it says, surely his arms is not to short to reach for you. Do not be afraid to be rebuked by the bible. It is where you will learn.
