No one has the ability to follow God's commandments perfectly. We are able to choose to not deny any of Christ's divine revelations to man.
Remember that GOD looked at that mans heart.You and I may not like what we see as far as appearances,but we cannot make a right judgement about what Is on the Inside of him that GOD sees.(unless of course GOD tells you)
We can only see the fruit and that Is a right judgement.
I hope You can understand what I am trying to say.
You still haven't told us what you mean. Give us an example. You are talking in absolutes about things that have not been defined yet.
It's like saying "We must believe all of God's word".

The totality of divine revelation has revealed that the life we look forward to post resurrection is not in heaven, but on the new earth. Do you think the new earth with be a sphere?
Do you agree that our life eternal in Christ will not be in heaven as your OP suggests? Too many people speak in a way that does not reflect revealed Biblical truths. If you have had the Truth revealed to you, why not speak in a way that is congruent with it? Speaking of life in heaven sounds very RCC.
IMO you are talking about salvation by grace through faith and then renewing your mind to the new creation that you have become called "progressive sanctification".
But nevertheless would you agree that a person has to first be reborn?

I believe in everything the Holy Spirit has revealed to me about Jesus but this is obviously just going to be a waste of time with this "circle talk".....I'm out of this discussion.
People often complain about how Christians understand God and Jesus Christ differently from one another, and use that as an excuse to say we cannot possibly be speaking of the same entity. And yet, if you grew up in a family with siblings, you know very well that your experiences and beliefs and feelings in relation your parents and siblings vary from that of your other siblings. People really don't have as much common sense as they like to think they do

If you truly do not deny any of Christ's divine revelations to man, you would already have examples. You would not need an example from me.

At some point in time, they are no longer ignorant, they choose to remain in their errors.
