Testing

This morning I read an essay by Hugh Ross (in A Place for Truth, edited by Dallas Willard) about how he has read through the entire Bible, testing the validity of every statement (scientific, prophetic, historic). I want to do that. I want to read the Bible over again, with new eyes, testing everything. Doesn't Paul say "Test everything"? (1 Thessalonians 5:21) I want to read prophecies and understand what they mean, what they predicted and what of that has already come to pass, not just say, "Hm, I wonder what that means?", like I have so many times before.

If God really is who He says He is, He's up for the challenge.
