Do you care about God at all?

If you truly care about God, you will want to know and understand His Word in truth. How? By rejecting the opinions and teaching of men, and learning God’s Word from Him alone. Faith comes from hearing the Word of God from the Lord. Consider the following:

Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures 1

Why would Jesus need to open minds to understand the Scriptures? Though penned by men, Genesis through Revelation was authored by God. These 66 books contain His deep mysteries, which He is intentionally hiding from man until He reveals. Therefore, the Lord must teach you the Scriptures His way. He is the Word of God; that is His Name.

For Him to reveal, however, He requires that you go to Him like a child. Present yourself to God with the attitude that you know nothing. You must come to Him with nothing of man. Leave behind all church and religious teachings, all of men’s opinions about God. Then He may choose to reveal. If you won't come to Him in this correct way, you might think He will teach you, but He won’t.

If you're wondering why no one has told you this before, there’s a reason. Organized churches and religions – your church, your religion – are the “many” that Scripture speaks of, who are deceived and do not understand the Word of God. They want you to go to them, see them, lift them up, and give them money. In return, they will make you feel content and comfortable, show you things that you desire, that give you pleasure, and cause you to feel good about yourself and your life – just like the devil did with Eve. But God wants you to “come out from their midst and be separate.”2

Be warned – there’s a battle

A warning... If you begin a totally new investigation of God and His Book with the childlike attitude that He alone should be your One Teacher, you will encounter a spiritual battle – especially from your family, friends, and church/religion. You will also encounter interference when reading the Scriptures. The battle over the Word of God is real. Be warned.

(1) Luke 24:45 (2) 2Corinthians 6:17
