"Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth./I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old"
"Testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." The written word, and it is the God document that we call the Bible has only one centre of gravity which is the Word become flesh. When Jesus began his ministry how he should lay across the message, - he was the message so in a manner of speaking it was cut out for him beforehand. Isaiah foretold this. "The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned."(Is.50:4). To hear as the learned it is the wisdom that is from above and it can only help us. "But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption."(1 Co.1:30) Of God he is made unto us wisdom.
The Lord knows man so when He sent his only begotten Son he also taught him what he and how he should say. Of this the Son of man himself testified. So he said, "If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself." ( John 7:17) Here we come across why there is so much controversy, needless and devilish in its effect, and it is not from Jesus who of God has become wisdom. And Jesus outs the problem, "If any man will do his will" he shall know whether the doctrine be of God or of man. God makes a distinction as to who is amenable to benefit from hearing the word of God. Scholarship of the proud is in their intellect. "Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off."(Ps.138:6)
Ps.78:1-2
