What should we do when Bible verses are hard to understand?
When Scripture seems mind-boggling or hard to comprehend, we should still believe it, because the Scripture does not lie. We may admit the difficulty, but we are to accept it by faith rather than demand full understanding, trusting that God remains fair and just.
Les teaches that some verses are mind-boggling and hard to comprehend, and he is the first to admit it. Yet because the Scripture does not lie, we have to believe it. He illustrates this with passages showing that God's light and grace have appeared to all, so people are without excuse. The difficulty does not override the truth; we trust what God says even when we cannot fully understand.
