People get "Rapture" from the Bible, I just read "Michael" talking about zillions of years of torturous damnation, et al--none of this is in Scripture, or in inspiration from God.
Proxy?

That's not the original MSS.

No, but any issues, I believe, arise in translation, and we ultimately have to translate for ourselves, anyway. If 90% of this is "love your neighbor," and if 90% of the remaining 10% is discernable, we're now talking about 1%. the Word is living, and the spirit should guide us there, anyway, imo.

Well, that would be nice.

Lots of people do that. The "Spirit" seems to "teach" them a lot of different things.

As it should be?
The Spirit gives different gifts, too.
(use the fruits, Luke...)

The "Spirit" "teaches" contradictory things to different people. Is that as it should be?

Hmm, to that I would say that there are more than one probability for this common misunderstanding, and understanding this is central to one's walk. My theories run to gifts being distributed unevenly, listening to men instead of Spirit, not allowing for other men to listen to Spirit, not recognizing varying conditions that prolly explain the apparent contradiction, etc.

Our desire for an earthly king, and therefore other forms of Law--boards, codes, whathaveyou, that attempt to homogenize Spirit, and enforce uniformity, just make me want to...talk like Kirk...
