I love point number one, “there is no understanding without standing under.” That’s exactly what I needed recently when I tried to explain why I’m comfortable believing what I do. It’s mostly because I’m not qualified to come up with something different or better than what’s already laid out in scripture. Even if I wish some of it were different, who am I to find fault with it? I’m going to stand under it anyway.
Absolutely. And God continues to move us forward, and we learn from our mistakes, but the alternative of deciding that truth is whatever we feel about it leads us nowhere.
