Doctrine of Faith # 5
5. It is a spiritual idea — of which few know anything — that flows in with people who have an affection for truth, and which inwardly dictates whether something they have heard or read is true or not.
Those people experience this idea who read the Word in a state of enlightenment by the Lord. To be enlightened means nothing less than to have a perception and so an internal acknowledgment that something or other is true. Such people are said to be taught by Jehovah (Isaiah 54:13, John 6:45). And concerning them we read in Jeremiah:
"Behold, the days are coming…, when I will make a new covenant…. …this (shall be) the covenant…. I will put My law in their inner selves, and write it on their hearts…. And no more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know Jehovah,’ for they all shall know Me…. (Jeremiah 31:31, 33-34)
Jeremiah 31:33-34
33
But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says Yahweh: I will put my law in their inward parts, and in their heart will I write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people:
34
and they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yahweh; for they shall all Know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says Yahweh: for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more.
