Bible Question:
True or False To know things in our intuition is what the bible calls revelation. Revelation - The Holy Spirit enables a believer to apprehend a particular matter by indicating the reality of it to his spirit. There is but one kind of knowledge concerning either the Bible or God which is valuable, and that is the truth revealed to our spirit by God’s Spirit. God does not explain Himsself via man’s reasoning; never does man come to know God through rationalization. If there is no revelation, personal revelation, Christianity is worth nothing. Everyone who believes God must have this revelation in his spirit, or else what he believes is not God but mere human wisdom, ideals or words. Such a faith cannot endure the test. From the Spiritual Man by Whatchman Nee |
Bible Answer: The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not suject to any man's judgment: For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. ( I Cor.2:10-16) .....and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord" except by the Holy Spirit. ( I Cor.12:3 |
