The first thing one must do in order to understand these concepts, is to accept the premise of the work. The premise is:
God is the only author of the KJV Bible, which is centered on the days of the Creation.
An interpretation is hidden in the KJV text, in the method Paul has demonstrated in all his epistles.
God is indeed the only true author of the Holy Bible...He spoke through Moses and the prophets who were carried along by the Holy Spirit as Peter pens. These men "penned" the Gospel, God authored it.
As for interpretations being hidden, the OT held hidden wisdom as Scripture itself declares:
Psalm 78:1-3:
My people, hear my teaching;
listen to the words of my mouth.
I will open my mouth in parables,
I will utter hidden things, things from of old—
what we have heard and known,
what our fathers have told us.
This speaks of the hidden knowledge revealed through Christ who would open His mouth in parables...the ancients had knowledge of the Messiah and indeed putting their faith in this promise and following God's commands was their salvation.
We much of the O.T. being explained in the N.T. as both real and symbolic. (more hidden knowledge revealed to us then)
I Corinthians 2:13-14:
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God,for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Here again we see a reason for lack of comprehension of God's word...some lack the Spirit who is necessary for discernment.
I'm not sure what some of you are trying to do with this thread...de-Divinci Code the Scriptures??
My advise: Read the Scriptures totally through from beginning to end without aids. It is straight-forward reading. Be diligent in prayer for understanding when something doesn't make sense and above all do what the Word says with all your heart. If you have godly motives surely God will grant you wisdom and understanding. I'm afraid some of you have lost connection with the Head, who is Christ Jesus, and your intrigues have gotten the best of you and if the father of lies and such intrigues were to be unveiled you would come eye-to-eye with Satan and learn to your sore chagrin that you are not following God at all, but Satan.
