You’d think if God wanted us to understand all that stuff, he’d have not inflicted multiple languages on us at the Tower of Babel.

He gave us the Holy Spirit to take care of that issue.


You’d think so, but there are many who will tell you the Holy Spirit isn’t a sufficient teacher. But then, that’s not very ecumenical.

There is a belief among some in Roman Catholicism that you may or may not have the Holy Spirit in contradiction of Ephesians 1:13-14.

Not in the circles I run in. That is NOT a teaching I have heard from Evangelical Christianity.

I would conclude that the only ones who claim that are the ones who want to suck you into a cult where they are the sole repository of Truth, because they have special training or insight.
