Bible Note: Hello STTIL, You said there was a good chance that English translations had gnostic influence, therefore what I have is tainted. It is unreliable. On the other hand, you do not believe that what you have for Scripture is tainted. Therefore, you are espousing elitism. You have already espoused mysticism by appealing to the mystery of whether we have proper translations, i.e. we can't know, so we must go by our personal experience. You again state that the "Word of God" guides you. Yet you have still not defined what that is. Still waiting. Steve |
