It is true that the apostle has said that there are some things that are hard to be understood in the Scriptures. So there are. And if it were not that there are subjects that are difficult and hard to be understood, well might the skeptic who now pleads that God has given a revelation that cannot be understood—well might he, I say—have something else to plead. God’s infinity is so much higher than we are, that it is impossible for man to comprehend the mystery of godliness.{7BC 919.3}

Det er sandt at apostlen har sagt at der er nogle ting som er vanskelige at forstå i Skriften. Sådan er det. Og hvis det ikke er for at der er emner der er vanskelige at forstå, kunne skeptikeren, som nu påstår at Gud har givet en åbenbaring som ikke kan forstås, kunne han lige så godt have noget andet at påstå. Guds ubegrænsethed er så meget større end vi, så det er umuligt for mennesker at forstå guddommelighedens mysterier.
