....to which, yes, I myself would not advise.. Oh lol describing me, that it? *Snip* The knoweldge of this world I have absolutely no desire whatsoever for *snip*
Yes. I hope you don't find that insulting. It's just that if you pull up a list of popular conspiracies, you probably believe in most of them. Now some of them may be proven true later but for now they're what they are.
Also you seemed shocked previously about Yahweh's association with other pagan gods but that's mostly cultural history.
All we have is our "worldly" knowledge to help us understand anything further. How can we hope to understand anything beyond without it? Where does discernment come from?
Did not my post say discernment is seeking and finding? That's not a thing to do with a worldly discerned concept of any seeking, type discernment.
There is no cherry picking with acknowledging Isaiah 2:22, K J V declares what to cease from, and that certainly is the deceiving false foundation beginning Gen. 2:6-9 that's absolutely in complete opposition to The Very First Chapter Of Genesis. *Snip*
This is cherry picking. It happens because of actual inconsistencies in the text suggesting lack of authenticity. Then there are also texts that conflict with personal belief or practice that people gloss over
In the end, faith is more than just the book. I believe most Christians believe god is love and that's commendable. But cherry picking passages to put down or restrict others is what has to be stopped.
