Les Feldick Bible Study

Who alone is able to change the invisible, inner part of a person?

Only God can change the invisible, inner part of a person. No preacher, teacher, priest, denomination, or religion can touch that inner make-up. Because He is the Creator of that invisible part, He alone is able to accomplish this transformation, not by works or human effort.

Les explains that the believer has been transformed and metamorphosed like a cocoon becoming a butterfly, and this change is not by works. He illustrates with a dead car battery: cleaning the outside does nothing; power must come from an outside source. Likewise, works religion fails because no preacher, teacher, priest, denomination, or religion can reach into the invisible part of a man's make-up. Only God can, because He created that invisible part. Les connects this to the next word, Mind.
