[QUOTE="Forthetruth, post: 2628088, member: 889356"] I admire this one's faith, as it is pure and to the point---God did write the Word, but he used men to do it, holy men were inspired by the Holy Ghost to pen what God has said. All you doubters say that it ain't so, but yet some believe that life began without God creating it, and just looking at the creation tells you that it had to have an intelligent design, and a creator behind it. The Word of god says that the natural man (unsaved) cannot recieve the things of God, neither can he understand them, for they are Spiritually discerned (understood). This is where the "rub" is; man is constantly trying to figure God out , and it is im possible to do so, for God will not allow man to know everything (read Deut. 29:29) and it takes the Spirit of God to reveal what God wants man to know, as this is the way that he contacts man, through his Spirit, as God is a spirit. The Word of God will always be confusing to unsaved man, as man in that condition has the sin nature of the devil, and he will always be in confusion until the light of God's word being spoken to them, will illuminate them to the reality that they need to be saved from their sins, and then, and only then, will the truth of the Word of God shine in them and enlighten their understanding. To the one that wrote the question: keep the faith, and do not let anyone or thing deter you from your goal in serving the Lord. [/QUOTE]
