My boy went on his first helicopter ride at Hunsaker
Farms, (a pumpkin field) years ago. When he came down,
he was so excited. He began to tell us
everything about a helicopter. Now keep
in mind, he couldn’t talk to the pilot, nor could he hear anything except the
roar of the engine.
But somehow, on this helicopter ride, he was endowed with
infinite wisdom concerning helicopters and their operations. For the next three days he was telling us all
about helicopters.
It is kind of funny in a story like this about a child,
but you have Christians going about purporting to be experts about this doctrine
or that doctrine without having it substantiated by the Word of God. They build doctrines on silly and
unsubstantiated claims, guessing about how God does this or that, instead of
believing what God says and operating in His truths.
Belief and making up your mind about something are
synonymous. Until you make up your mind
about something, what you call belief is just guessing.
To receive revelation from God that will
help you to know exactly where you are with God, you have to take the way
you think, from guessing - to belief.
