This book will help each of us pry open our minds and become a bit more receptive to what the Lord wants to reveal to us. It seems that we pretty much all think we are right and we seek to prove others wrong to justify our positions. However this book asks you to take the approach of the Bereans (Acts 17:11). They were more open-minded. They sought to prove Paul's new radical teaching SO, not prove it NOT SO. It is all a matter of attitude. Seeking to prove others wrong is to take the accuser's attitude, which of course is satan's attitude (Rev. 12:10). I grew up doing that. Then the Lord challenged me to become a Berean, and to come alongside as the Holy Spirit does and prove them right, not prove them wrong.I used to scorn liberals (actually I scorned everyone who disagreed with me) because liberals lost their Bible through demythicizing (believing Jesus's miracles were myths). I was proud I was an evangelical. Then the Lord spoke to me one day during my two-way journaling time, saying, "Mark, you don't believe the Bible is for you either." I objected, and said of course I do. He said, "No, you believe that Acts is transitory, the Gospels are for Jesus, the Old Testament for the Jews, and the book of Revelation is for the future. The only part you believe is to be lived is the Epistles." I said, "Good point" and repented of my belief in dispensationalism.I now believe the Bible is to be lived, from cover to cover. I finally have my Bible back. It took about 15 years to restore, but now I can live it from Genesis to Revelation! If satan has stolen your Bible from you, fight and get it back.From the most conservative fundamentalists to the most liberal demythicizers, all are equally convinced God has no living contact with individuals.
