Let us pose the question in this way. Will the truth set men free? We know that Jesus declared that truth would set men free (John 8:32). It must be understood in the context of the time that all truth had not been revealed at the time Jesus was on the earth. Jesus promised the apostles, and not us, that the Spirit of God would guide them into all truth (John 16:13). There would be a time when there would be no more truth coming from God and, therefore, the will of God would be finished (1 Corinthians 13:8-10). During this transition period men would have the Old Testament prophecies to rely on to establish that Jesus was the Christ (Acts 17:11).
We now live under the time when the Word of God was a finished product. Whatever we need to know in order to enjoy eternity with God has been provided by God (2 Peter 1:3). The testimony of Jesus is the life of prophecy (Revelation 19:10). God expects us to know what the Scriptures reveal. We each can spend a lifetime of searching the Scriptures and never know all that is there. The Bible is from God and each effort in studying it can deepen faith. On the other hand, if parts of the Bible are ignored because one is convinced it cannot be understood, then faith will be threatened.
A key area here is to know that the Bible is not filled with contradictions. If one finds a contradiction then study must be made. If in the study a plausible explanation is arrived at then you do not have a contradiction. If one takes a prophecy and produces a “seeming contradiction” then the understanding of the prophecy is flawed. Most prophecies, properly handled, can be understood (2 Timothy 2:15). Those that are more difficult, if there is a plausible explanation, can also be understood. Anyone who takes any portion of Scripture and uses it to promote their own ideas or false doctrine will never build faith but will contribute to the shipwreck of faith.
