Why do genuinely saved people have an insatiable appetite for Scripture?
Genuinely saved people have an insatiable appetite for Scripture because, having believed the gospel, they begin to mind the things of the Spirit rather than the things of the world and old Adam. They cannot exhaust what is in the book and cannot get enough of it, as Scripture intends.
Les explains that when a person comes to believe the gospel and is genuinely saved, they cannot exhaust what is in this book; they just cannot get enough of it. He says that is as it should be, exactly the way Scripture wants it to be. The reason is that the saved person then begins to mind the things of the Spirit rather than the things of the world and old Adam. That reorientation explains the appetite for Scripture.
