Obedience is the fruit of faith.
Were there no God, we would be in this glorious world with grateful hearts, and no one to thank.
To me it seems our duty towards the Bible is to obey its teaching in faith. I do not think we are bound to understand or account for all its utterances.
I believe because I am told to believe ... My faith is faith; it is not evolved out of argumentation, nor does it seek the aid of that.
