Amen. Terrific answer to that constant question. If the Holy Spirit quickens our minds and facilitates our understanding of Scripture, the "proof" is in the very real evidence of it -- the fruits of the Spirit.

"The work of the Spirit, then, is joined to the word of God. But a distinction is made, that we may know that the external word is of no avail by itself unless animated by the power of the Spirit...All power of action, then, resides in the Spirit himself." - John Calvin
