Well done in your three-part message, Frank. I've been following it, waiting to read the whole telling.
Isaiah has some very fine Spirit-inspired Words regarding it:
Isaiah 28:9-14 (AV):-----------9Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
10For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
12To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
13But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
Keep it up. open, and simple to grasp like this message, Frank (which means straightforward, not hidden in meaning)! The unsaved natural soulish man cannot receive the deep things of the Spirit, even when spoken by Him, for they are discerned by the spiritually mature human who has access to the Mind of Jesus. He Only is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and provides new birth and access to His Father.
Appreciate your contribution, and taking heed to it.
A new broom sweeps clean, Frank; but the "old Broom" knows all the corners!
