Lance, this is a statement devoid of faith. Trust the
Most High God. If He says He will teach you, and lead
you into all truth, that is a powerful I.O.U.. I think
He's good for it. It's like Treasury stock. You know
it's a reliable investment. (I'm taking my first
accounting class this semester, lol).
That sentence is almost an irrational statement. It's
like me being scared to death I'm going to get AIDS,
even though I don't do anything to put me at risk.
Equally, God told me He wants me to know His mind. I
know it's possible to be weak and not know Him or
understand His word, but He's given me the means to
know and understand Him, just as I have the means to
avoid AIDS (by the godly wisdom of remaining chaste
and abstaining from drugs). When we lean not onto our
own understanding, but trust him with all our heart,
he will direct our path. To fret about the obstacles
in our path is an irrational fear, because, well, He's
God. That's a very lofty title, but He bears it well.
It's foolish and worthless for me to worry about AIDS,
when God's Holy Spirit and wisdom protects me from
such things. Yes, it exists, just as our human
weakness does, but He has provided the remedy: the
Holy Spirit. Don't sell it so short, Lance.
Blessings!

Do remember, won't you, that this conversation
included misunderstanding and
misinterpretation.
