Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The more we can get to grips with what God has inspired people to write, the more we get to grips with God’s will.
God chose the right people to write the scriptures. He did not choose the ultimate scholars because people like me would struggle to read the bible.
He did not choose philosophers who knew people intimately because that would worry people like me.
Instead He chose ordinary people to explain in ordinary ways His will and His ways as best they could.
