What makes deeper Bible teaching exciting to a believer?
Deeper Bible teaching excites a believer because it reveals all God has done through Christ's death and resurrection, showing believers are positioned with Christ in the heavenlies awaiting future fruition. It moves beyond elementary truths into deeper doctrine, reproof, and correction, leading to the hope of being in His presence and enjoying the blessings of glory.
Les teaches that not every believer, though saved, has a hunger for deeper things; some just nod off. But if you are really interested in all that God has done on your behalf when Christ died for you and rose from the dead, these things are exciting. He points to being positioned with Christ in the heavenlies and the future fruition of that position. Les explains moving from the elementary things of our sinful estate, the Gospel that saved and justified us, and constant reproof and correction, up into deeper doctrine and deeper reproof, and finally into glory—no longer tied to this world, but in His presence, enjoying all the blessings of glory. He compares Scripture with Scripture, pointing to Romans 8:17-18.
