Does the end-time increase of knowledge include spiritual understanding of the Bible?
Yes. The end-time increase of knowledge is not limited to secular technology; it also includes a greater understanding of the Scriptures. As the age closes, God reveals what was previously kept secret, enabling deeper spiritual insight into His Word. This spiritual increase accompanies the explosion of secular knowledge.
Les teaches that while there is an explosion of secular knowledge, especially in technology that brings the world to the end-time scenario, the increase of knowledge also extends into the spiritual realm. He explains that we are seeing a greater understanding of the Scriptures in these last days than men were able to have before, because God is the keeper of secrets. Using Deuteronomy 29:29, Les points out that the secret things belong unto the Lord, but God has kept things secret and is now revealing them as we approach the end of the age. So knowledge is not just limited to the secular world; it also includes the area of the spiritual and the understanding of God's Word.
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
