The Lord’s Word contains real truth. Its literal meaning,
though, contains truth adapted to the comprehension of
people whose worship is shallow, while its inner meaning
contains truth adapted for people with depth—people
whose theology and life are both angelic. The rational
minds of the latter consequently brim with so much light
that it rivals the brilliance of the stars and sun (Daniel
12:3; Matthew 13:43). This shows how important it is for
us to learn about and accept inner truth.
