We are in a foreign language course:

We are students of the Lord-studying his word-understanding it through our interpreter the Holy Spirit.  We should be listening and following the instruction of the teacher- reading, writing, speaking, and sharing this language with others.  We should be practicing it everyday so that we can speak it in it's original tongue.  Listening carefully to the accent and learning the dialect of the Holy Spirit.  We need to understand the region, and the culture from which this language originated.  Then and only then will we be prepared to speak with the locals once we leave this place. . .
