When the Bible Blows Your Mind

Hello,

This material is from John Piper's Desiring God website, and is, I believe, useful to remind ourselves that while it may sometimes seem to be contradictory from one passage to another, the Bible actually is not.

The takeaway is this:

The Bible teaches us to expect mental jolts when we think about God. It teaches us that our familiar ways of seeing things may be replaced.

I humbly invite you to read the article and share any thoughts/insights you have.

For myself, I especially appreciated the reference to Colossians 3:12 and how that command may be useful when reading scripture that may not fit one's preconceived notions of who God is.

Peace,
Lawrence
