It is of utmost importance that we understand what the Scriptures teach so that we may believe what God has said, for 'faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God' (Rom. 10:17).  The type of 'faith' which some advocate today is sheer superstition, which dispenses entirely with the need for searching or studying the Scriptures.  But the faith which the Scriptures themselves call for is always based on an intelligent understanding of what is said (Mk 6:34; Eph 1:17-18; Col 1:9-10; 2:1-3; 2 Tim 2:15)"
