“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?” (Mark 12:24).
The Lord Jesus told the Sadducees (the religious people); they had made a great error because they did not know that the true God is the God of the Bible.
God gave birth to the Bible, and He is preaching the Bible unto us: “But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you” (1 Peter 1:25).
The Scriptures made it clear that the children of the flesh are not the children of God. Only those who are born again by the Word of God in the Bible are the children of God (see 1 Peter 1:23-24).
God, Jesus affirmed, is not the God of the dead flesh, but of the living Word of God. He is the God of all who have received the Spirit and language of the Scriptures such as Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (see Mark 12:25-27).
No one practices English in the flesh. Nobody can speak English just by wearing a suit. No, English is a spirit, not a dress. No one eats Chinese food and starts speaking Chinese. That is not how to receive Chinese; rather it is by Chinese words.
We must understand that until the Spirit of the Bible enters into a person he cannot understand God, because God is a Spirit. We should seek first to receive the Spirit and understanding of the Bible (see John 4:24).
Jesus Christ, the living Word of God in the Bible, is knocking at the door of your heart, saying, He is a language that is ready to write in your heart, and in your mind (see Revelation 3:20).
Once the Spirit of the Scriptures enters our hearts we become heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ. The only way to have an inheritance in God is to receive His Spirit, the Spirit of the Bible (see Romans 8:14-17).
