My Post #48 speaks a bit to the “secret things of the Lord”. As I indicated, what we “are told” in the Bible is not secret. The things that “are not told” are the secret things.

Good responses ST, keep on. I'm enjoying your arguments.

My Post #48 speaks a bit to the “secret things of the Lord”. As I indicated, what we “are told” in the Bible is not secret. The things that “are not told” are the secret things.

God does not expect everyone to see many, many of the secrets, the "mysteries" in the Bible even when they are explained, even when they are, ostensibly, "believers."

The "psukikos" one, the natural man, cannot receive the deep things of the Holy Spirit because they are moronic to him. Nor can he come to grips with the concepts, because they are seen in the spirit, not with the eyes or by the intellecual facility unaided.

But the "pneumatikos" one, the spiritual (hu)man sees these things as they appear in Scripture by the indwelling Holy Ghost, and the more so--truth built upon other unseen but evident truths--as the mind of Christ possesses him.

Thus Genesis Chapter 1, verse 1 makes sense to the spiritual man, but not to the highly trained and ranked physical scientist, who can explain many things,except where space, time, matter, and physical or spiritual eternal life come from.

Who, then, is the spiritual moron?
