Can We All Understand The Bible Alike?

Many “preachers” teach, and many people believe, that the Bible cannot be understood by all men ALIKE.  They believe that it means, and should mean, one thing to one man and the very opposite thing to another man.  Thus, some religious bodies teach baptism is essential to salvation and other say NOT SO!  Some teach you can fall from grace after being once saved and others say NOT SO!  AND, many people thing that all are right regardless of the position people take on these and scores of other subjects.
GOD SAYS WE CAN UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE, ALIKE!
First, IF we understand it, it is alike.  Can every pharmacist understand your doctor’s prescription alike?  If two men understand something, they understand it alike.  If one man understands that 2 + 2=4 and he is right, all other men who understand it conclude the same.  Anyone who disagrees misunderstands it.  No matter how honest a man in error is, he is still wrong.  The same  is true with the BIBLE.  When two disagree, both may be wrong but at least one is wrong.  The Bible does NOT say one thing to one person, and the opposite to another even though they may think it does.  One may be honestly wrong, but he is still wrong no matter how honest.  “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:  Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.  But though we, or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”Gal. 1:6-8.
God assures us that we CAN understand the Bible.  In Eph. 5:17, “but understand what the will of the Lord is”  Again, “Whereby, when ye read, ye can perceive my understanding in the mystery of ‘Christ:”  Eph 3:4.  For sure, God is going to judge us according to the Bible – Jn. 12:48; Rev. 20:12.  The Bible teaches that, “The times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all me every where to repent.”  Acts 17:30.  Ignorance is n0 excuse today.  All of us have Bibles and are literate.  God revealed His Word (ICord 2:10) so that there is not excuse.  DO YOU KNOW GOD’S WORD?
