What does the Bible say about understanding the gospel?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes that understanding the gospel is a gift from Christ, who opens our understanding of the Scriptures (Luke 24:45).

The Bible underscores the notion that understanding the gospel is not merely an intellectual exercise but a divine act. In Luke 24:45, we see that Christ opens the disciples' understanding so they could comprehend Scripture. This indicates that while we can read and memorize Scripture, true understanding comes from Christ alone. It is a necessary work of God, indicating that without His intervention, even the most educated may remain blind to the truth of the gospel.
