A: 2 Timothy 3: 16 reads 'All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:' and 1 Peter 1: 20 reads 'Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.'
Considering the foregoing verses of scripture, the answer to the above question will be 'Yes, we need the inspiration of the Holy Spirit to understand the Bible.' Now, by inspiration, we do not mean something too spectacular for the Christian. If you are a Christian, you have the Spirit of God who inspires you at all times when the need arises. 1 John 2: 27: But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
Hope these words answer the question satisfactorily. If you have further questions, please send them through the comment section or through our FaceBook group 'Heirs of Grace' You are so blessed!
