Why can even a 12-year-old understand what the Bible says?
The Word of God is brought down to the level of every human being. Consequently, even 12- and 13-year-old kids can comprehend it. Its message is not reserved for scholars or advanced readers but is plain enough for young adolescents to understand.
Les explains that the Word of God is brought right down to the level of every human being, so even 12- and 13-year-old kids can comprehend it. He also warns against depending on commentaries, saying he does not use or own them because commentators are just commentators. This reinforces that Scripture is accessible to ordinary people, not only to PhD theologians.
