[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 4144963, member: 65823"] No doubt. .."If anyone speaks, he should speak as one conveying the words of God." 1 Peter 1:11 -- Not much of that happening today for sure. Some think that Peter meant of Paul's writing that hard to understand was also hard to accept by the Jewish Christian of the first century. At times, Paul had to explain the differences between the law of Moses and the law of Christ to fleshly Israelites who were rooted in traditions and customs which often contradicted the very law which they claimed to observe. They were so "high minded" because of the advantages which they had over the Gentiles, that they failed to benefit from those advantages (Rom. 3:1,2; 9:4,5). The Jew was so busy excluding the Gentile that he (the Jew) denied himself of those promises to be found in Christ and the gospel of the new covenant. Peter said there were "some things" hard to be understood, not all things. And the ones who wrested these things were unlearned and unstable readers who did the same thing with other Scriptures.
