The world boasts of knowledge and wisdom. But the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. It is foolishness because what God values as knowledge is despised by the world. In the world, they make their boast in scientific knowledge. They also brag about philosophy. But the philosophy of men does not understand the system of God. The system of God is rule by the Word of God. The Word of God is like something without sense before the eyes of men. They use experiences and the things that they can know from their senses to interpret the things happening around them. Well, they may be right in their assertion because they only know what their senses can see.
The knowledge of God is what the spirit of God alone can interpret. The Bible says that there is no one who can understand the things of a man except the spirit of that man which is in him. In the same way, the things of God are not known to any man safe the spirit of God. The educated people of this world lack knowledge about the word of God. They have scientific knowledge but scientific knowledge cannot explain the Bible. They understand philosophy but philosophy cannot interpret what is written in the Bible. Can science explain or predict prophesy? The Word of God comes to us a prophesy.
For us to understand the Bible, we must read and meditate on it regularly. Many people know about reading the Bible yet they do not read it themselves. It is like praying. A lot of people know that God can answer prayers but they themselves don't pray. Let us make up time to read and study the Bible daily. As we study the Bible, we should know that it is by the Holy Spirit that we can understand it. So, let us open our hearts unto the Holy Spirit.
