OK, so you've discovered the truth. Believe in Jesus Christ, be saved and obey God's commandments. Simple as that.
Is intellectual truth enough?
"Love God with all your heart, all your mind and all your soul".
All I'm suggesting is that intellect is only part of the story. We need to be using all our resources. If we just rely on our analytical brain to interpret scripture, we will get superficial meanings. Pray for HS, I hear you say. Yes this is the key. He will provide the other gifts that are so vital. Discernment, discernment, discernment.
Discernment is more important than intellect. Intellect is just a stepping stone to deeper truth. We have to dig deeper or we settle for less.I don't know about you, but I want depth not surface meaning. Because that will strengthen my faith.
