I was in Paltalk listening to people debate about views of scripture. Now, this isn't my view, you can find this all over scripture and this is what they came to realize after we talked: The interpretation comes from God's Holy Spirit. There are no opinions with God, nor are there any theories. He doesn't say, I am the voice of the burning bush, and leave that open for you to interpret how you see it. The understanding is applied by His Spirit.
No, my interpretations are worth nothing, the scriptures say, The natural man receives not the things of God, neither can he know them because they're spiritually discerned. If I reasoned something on my own, I do so out of my own carnal mind, and I lean on my own understanding. The Lord hates this, and it's one of the reasons why those He saves has the Holy Spirit abiding within them: because they speak from His translation, His understanding, and not from their own. Christ is my teacher, and captain of my salvation, if I followed my own path, it would lead to death. And you can document what I just said in more than one place in scripture.
The Lord tells us to Trust in the Lord with all of our heart and lean NOT on our own understanding. In all our ways acknowledge HIM and HE will direct our paths.
AMEN
