Chapter THREE, "Rightly Dividing The Word of Truth"
"Rightly Dividing The Word of Truth"
In our conclusion that Scriptural confirmation of any doctrine is by illumination of The Person of The Holy Spirit through the witness of God's Word rightly divided, we also conclude that The Holy Scriptures are provided by inspiration of The Holy Spirit. Since the Bible was written by holy men of God who were moved by The Holy Ghost, it should be obvious that the meanings assigned to The Word of God can only be provided by The One who inspired the words in the first place! So how does The Holy Spirit witness to the truth of The Word of God? This is no mere incidental question. It is literally a matter of life and death.
Question to ponder:
Are you familiar with the way that a passage of Scripture that speaks to something you're going through at the very time you read it can, weeks later, speak to something completely different that you're going through at that later time? _________________________________________

Keith's "Comments from the Author":
"Anyone who has had the honor and privilege of meeting The Holy Spirit (in person) can attest to this fact that, wherever He goes, order and understanding are established. When you are standing with The Person of the Holy Spirit, the knowledge of God flows through every fiber of your being! And, the best way to describe this is, when I was with Him, I was remembering so many Scriptures that I had read ever since I was a young boy, and was overcome with God's wonder as He began to impart to me the true meaning of each of those verses, simultaneously. I was very aware that I was being bathed in the understanding of exactly what God wanted me to understand at that moment. What I came away with amazed me beyond words! The definition of each verse I was seeing in my memory is compared to what I had heard preached and taught over the years. The truth is that God's ways are not just higher than our ways, but God's ways are higher than our ways times infinity, times infinity!
When I met The Person of The Holy Spirit, everything went straight into my spirit, with no attention paid to the physical body. In fact, the body was of no concern whatsoever while I was in the God's Presence. I was made keenly aware that my spirit is, in fact, who I am, and it was because my body was not there to hinder my ability to stand with Him that I was able to enjoy the most wonderful experience I have ever had in my life. When the word says joy unspeakable and full of Glory, there is no way we can truly understand that passage of Scripture until we stand with God Himself. And the "unspeakable" part is about, when you have experienced God, you're hit with the indescribably reality that the way we communicate here on earth cannot even begin to relay the WONDER that IS God. Even the word 'wonder' doesn't begin to describe Him!
'It was the joy that was set before Christ that He endured the cross...' In great part, that joy that filled Christ's heart was knowing, better than anyone could ever know, just how crucially important The Holy Spirit is to our coming to understand God, His Ways and the true meaning of His Word. Selah."
Therefore take no thought do not worry, saying, What shall we eat? .... But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matthew 6:31-33)
WE PRAY YOU HAVE A FUN WEEKEND...
... FILLED with fresh visions of God!
... FILLED with unfathomable joy in Christ Jesus!
... FILLED with wisdom that only the Person of The Holy Spirit brings!
*See you Monday, and invite your friends too! God bless and keep you!*
