Why Do We Need the Spirit to Understand Scripture?

The Bible is not like any other book. It was given by the Spirit and requires the Spirit for true understanding. Without Him, the words remain veiled. With Him, the Scriptures become alive, clear, and transforming. Discover how the Spirit makes God’s Word spiritual in nature.
