When God's thoughts were written in the Bible, they didn't have the same meaning as how we interpret words. Didn't He tell us, “My thoughts are not your thoughts,” Is. 55:8?

Almost every word of significance, within the Bible, has its own definition given somewhere in the Bible. God hides things from the wise and prudent, and reveals them to babes, Lu. 10:21.

God is His own commentator. He doesn't need anything, including interpreters.

Study to show yourself approved, compare scripture with scripture, rightly DIVIDING the word of truth. (If you don't, it isn't truth.) It can only be spiritually discerned. He told us all these things and more. Wasn't anyone listening!?!

When you seek ME with your whole heart, you'll find ME. When you seek MY definition of the words, you'll find MY heart and intent. Your knowledge will pass away. My words are forever. And, My Truth will set you free.

When we're ready to do away with doctrines of men (gods of this world) and start over as a little child (letting God be our teacher), the Bible takes on new life ... life more abundantly. His Spirit will guide us to the truths we need in the moments of our day and the Spirit can't lie ... God promised, I Jn. 2:27.

God isn't dead. He'll walk with you and talk with you, and be the best counselor you ever had. Trade your thoughts for God's, your ways for His. We can live victoriously, when we put our faith in Him.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5
