“The Bible was written with the core assumption, just like cars were designed with the core assumption there will be fuel… The Bible was written with the core assumption that those who read it will know God. The goal of the bible is to lead you into a relationship with God. If you read this book, and you don’t know God, you have principles without the Prince. You have no fuel for the car.

If I could know all truth by reading this book, I wouldn’t need the Spirit of Truth to teach me the book. If you could know God strictly by reading this Bible, the Pharisees would’ve rocked. So what’s the point? You cannot read this book… without the Holy Spirit.

Every word in this book is an invitation to an experience. If you get the word but you don’t get the experience, you can’t say you know it. You’re an echo, and not a voice. God didn’t say “arise, and reflect.” He said, “arise, and shine.” It means you have to have a relationship.”
