Getting To Know God
Huntard writes:
You're just a fallible human, you're not all knowing. How can you possibly know what god meant, who has an intellect far greater than anything you could ever hope to fathom? How can you know that god is like you say he is? That he will only act the way you think he should act?
Huntard, there are things you are studied in. You spend a lot of time in your thing. When one is into the Bible daily for life, one gets to know how to corroborate the scriptures of the 40 or so authors, to become more astute in understanding them and get to know God.
Not only that, but when one becomes born of the Holy Spirit, enlightment come more easily as one's mind is illuminated by that spirit. That's not to say one will ever totally master it all.
The writers of many of the prophecies, like Ezekiel and Daniel, etc never knew how what they prophesied would work out. They were written so that the generations to come would read them and observe the fulfillment in their time. That's why Daniel was told that the book would be sealed until the last days and it wasn't for him to go further. Lo and behold the prophet John who wrote Revelation has a sealed book and Jesus opens it for him, i.e. the 7 seals, the 7th which becomes the 7 trumpets and the 7'th of it becomes the 7 bowls of wrath, etc. It's an amazingly wonderful book when you really get to know it. That's just one of the reasons nobody but nobody will ever dissuade me from trusting implicitly in the Biblical record. It satisfies all my needs, tells me where everything originated, why what we observe today is as it is and where the world is going in the future. It's been smack dad on the money as the centuries and milleniums pass and one can be assured about the future.

Growing And Learning

The scriptures are the same way. After being in it daily for 60 plus years, I'm still learning. Likely most of the apostates who have opted out of Christianity and the book studied little to grow and really understand it's values.
