YOU:
If the Godhead was understood solely by reading scripture...than why
don't other denominations "get it?"
ME:
Because other denominations do not have the Holy Spirit to guide
their studies.
YOU:
I don't think that everyone has a lightening bolt experience like I
did, for some people it comes slowly over time, but everyone must
have the Holy Ghost show them who God is.
ME:
First of all, I had one of these "lightning bolt" experiences. I had
been brought up to understand that God was a "trinity". No one could
convince me otherwise. Then one nite, a 'junior preacher' at my
church said something I had heard 50 thousand times and just passed
it off as ridiculous. Right then and there I understood what I had
been denying. So, I am not against lightning bolt experiences, but I
don't think that everyone understands the Godhead because of one.
Secondly, we cannot understand anything lest the Holy Spirit guide us.
BUT, if a person isn't studying the scripture, they aren't going to
have the Godhead "revealed" (through study) to them.
