“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.” (Jesus)

“The Totality of Knowing God Begins Here” by Dan Edelen
Another article about the all too common neglect of scripture in today’s church.
Hi Onesimus; A short comment! If a man reads everything about the Queen of England and knows everything about her, he still does not know the Queen.
Likewise, a man who studies and memorizes the totality of the Scripture still does not know God.
That is because the knowing of God begins with a new birth, to be born again or born of the Spirit and then he is a son of God and he will know Him and not only knows about Him. Kindly Paul
