“They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge”(Prov.8:9). How can we find this knowledge from God? “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come”(John 16:13). Only when a person is indwelt by the Holy Spirit can they have the capacity or even the desire to understand the wisdom found within the pages of the bible. The natural man has made attempts through out history to figure out this world and failed at every attempt. What is the cause for the failure of the natural mans wisdom? “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned” (1 Cor.2:14). How can a person understand scripture if they neglect a study of the bible? How can the wisdom of God flow from us if we have not invested the time necessary in understanding the great depths of what it is God says unto us? The church is the local assembly of Christians that preach, teach, memorize and apply the knowledge of God in life daily. Members apply the knowledge of God to demonstrate the love God has given them. Why not attend a church today and learn more about how to understand the knowledge of God? Search the scripture and find the knowledge that God has for you and you will be blessed.
