1 John 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
You hit the nail right on the head right there. Because they try to understand the scriptures through scholarship, instead of through faith and the Spirit of God, they are blinded and cannot understand.
1 Cor 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.
These folks got it all backwards. They want us to provide proof before they will believe, but the Bible says you must first believe before you can receive the things of the Spirit of God.
