It is a revelation that invites us into a new experience, and human beings do not like to change. #2 God was not a likeable or lovable character for most of human history. God was felt to be controllable through human sacrifice, which was practiced by all cultures. But with the advent of Jesus, God took the initiative to overcome our fear and need to manipulate God. #3 The Bible is a text in travail, which means it does not give you the conclusions but rather creates a clear set of patterns and a tangent. It is only inner experience that can bring you closer to the truth. #4 The Bible is a collection of books, and we must believe that the Spirit was guiding this listening and writing. We must trust that there is a development of crucial divine wisdom inside this anthology of books.
