Subject: special revelation vs general revelation |
Bible Note: Tim, There are differences in the above listed scriptures. Luke 9:44 Jesus spoke to then and told them to let it sink in.. Luke 9:45 They did not 'understand' or they did not 'hear'. Even though they could have quoted Jesus' words and surely understod the meaning of each word, they did not 'hear the message'. John too is a good example: John 8:43 No 'hearing'..just words John 8:47 'Hearing' rhema John 10:19 why do you listen? no 'hearing' John 10:21 spiritual understanding or enlightenment.. John 12:47-47 speaks of the non hearing being judged by the Word... John 1 The Word, Jesus, came as light..the entrance of His truth changes and transforms. The conforming to His Word as mere words or a religion without the revelation of the living Jesus raised from the dead will help one be moral but does nothing to cleans the soul and change the heart and re birth the spirit. Have you ever received a spirtual revelation? Or to put it another way, has the entrance of the Word brought light, then you share it with a friend and they just looked at you as if to say 'so what' or 'what language are you speaking?' You may answer this with a 'no' but let me ask you, When you heard the preached word and were convicted as a sinner and KNEW Jesus was the savior you needed. My friend, is this not that 'revelation' or enlightenment? If not, what would you call it? God bless |
