How does God enable us to understand His truth?

Answered in 1 source

God enables us to understand His truth through His sovereign grace and revelation.

Understanding God's truth is not achieved through human intellect or effort but is a gift bestowed by God through His sovereignty. John 6:44 states, 'No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him.' This suggests that it is God's initiative that draws us into understanding and relationship with Him. Moreover, the process of illumination is a work of the Holy Spirit, who teaches and guides us into all truth (John 16:13). Therefore, recognizing that our understanding of divine truth hinges on God's gracious intervention allows believers to rely wholly on Him for wisdom and insight.
