A person might say to you: “I believe Jesus is the
Messiah too, but I
don’t believe He is deity appearing
in human flesh, and here are some
scriptures to prove it!”
Would you be able to defend your interpretation
of those
same verses? Would you have reliable linguistic resources
or
commentaries at your fingertips to help you?
You may have heard this illustration. When a new FBI
agent is hired he is given intensive training. As part of
the program he is taught how identify counterfeit money.
The focus is mainly on doing a thorough study of the genuine
bills, not the phonies. This is the best way to spot the fake
currency.
While it’s helpful to learn about other religions and cults,
we should
be so familiar with God’s Word that when we
encounter error, we will
spot it at once. Today, many are
being led astray by various “isms”
because they don’t know
and study the genuine truth of God’s Word.
By the way, we need more FBI agents ‑‑ who have FULL
BIBLE INTELLIGENCE!
