“Personally, I don’t think the Bible was intended by God to be “the history book of the universe.” It’s not a history book, or a science textbook, or a rulebook that tells us what to do in every situation, or anything of that nature. It’s the story of God’s creation and redemption of humanity; it’s the story of Christ. ”
Kristen – I think you have spoken well. Christ says “blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it.” and “If you love Me, you’ll keep my commands.” – the “book” is about salvation, not “worldly knowledge” which is not really applicable to salvation. I don’t remember Jesus ever saying we should know the secrets of creation or the universe. But He does call us to love Him, and love one another.
Blessings in Christ,
Margaret
