The real calculus is in the Scriptures, and it is a never-ending discovery.....

Does that mean that your knowledge of Scripture can continue to grow over time?

R U kiddin'? My knowledge of Scripture, my knowledge of the Lord, my knowledge of myself is still growing. I don't know how many times I've read a familiar verse or passage and ¡*BOOM* ! I'll suddenly understand something or notice something I'd never understood or noticed before. Lights come on all the time; and it's exciting when that happens! Like when I realized the connection between Romans 8:13 and Heb. 9:14. Perhaps something like a magic sternum or a preacher could've told me that---but that would've taken all the fun out of the discovery. I wouldn't rob anyone of the delight of being taught by the Holy Spirit as He uncovers important truths. I attended a Christian high school and a Christian university and learned a lot in Bible classes, but the things I remember best are the things I learned One on one.
