AboutPastor Don Carpenter Expertise I believe that every word of the Bible is God- Breathed. This blessed book is the foundation of truth for faith and practice. If you ask this volunteer a question you will receive an answer from the Bible that is based upon a literal, normal interpretation, taking into account the grammar and culture of the time.
Experience I have been in the ministry 20+ years. During that time I served as a youth pastor, christian counselor, assistant pastor, church planter, and a senior pastor.

Question Some Christians believe that without the illumination of the Holy Spirit, one cannot understand the bible. Is it a false doctrine?
Answer Hi Tan,
Thank you for this great question. One must be born again, having the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in order to understand fully the scriptures.
1Co 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
