Subject: Ears Covered So as Not to Hear |
Bible Note: "But if they do not hear, they shall perish by the sword And they will die without knowledge. But the godless in heart lay up anger; They do not cry for help when He binds them." (Job 36:12-13) "It is an illusory [based on an illusion; i.e., not real] belief of the Enthusiasts that those who keep reading Scripture or hearing the Word are children, as if no one were spiritual unless he scorned doctrine. In their [the Enthusiasts'] pride, therefore, they despise the ministry of men, and even Scripture itself, in order to attain the Spirit. "I maintain that it is easy to judge the spirit that actuates those who scarcely allow men to teach what the apostle bids to handle constantly (Hebrews 5:14); who pretend that the neglect that is here so severely reproved is in fact praiseworthy; who take away the Word of God, the only true rule of discernment, which is declared here to be necessary for all Christians." --John Calvin (1509-1564) |
