A Fixed Rule

To this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word. Isa. lxvi. 2
 
"Let it be a fixed rule never to argue 
with a text of Scripture. 
----It is the same as arguing with God. 
If you cannot see any light in it, don't begin to find fault with it. 
Don't say, "I can't see how this can be, when such and such a text says," etc.
when you do that, you are building up a barrier between you and the Scriptures, that will effectively shut you out from an understanding of them. 
Have patience;.....Don't think that you can force your way into the inner sanctuary of God's revelation." 
E.J. Waggoner
