I agree.
But we have to discern and be Bereans. God gave us gifted teachers to teach us.
I would have never seen the Gospel message in the geneology of Genesis 5 without a good teacher.
That be what gets, one started, in searching it all out and motivated to read the entire
Bible for themselves. Mine started, when I heard a pastor named Bob George, (Past from here now, alive there with Father and Son as Won.) say over the radio, we all are forgiven by God Father and Son. I had questioned this, I was very busy, trying to keep forgiven and thus did n to love as called by God, to love others as am called by God to do willingly. Therefore, I went after reading to find out if it is true or not, Is Jesus the last sacrifice for sin or not?
It is true, Jesus did do it, John 1:29, John 19:30, he said he came here to earth to fulfill Law and Prophets, Matthew 5:17, he did do it, and Law is not taken away yet. Still need Law for those not in 100% belief sin taken away by God through Son, the two married as Won, (One) for us to believe, God, receive and see, and walk new in love and mercy to all others, thank you Lord.
Yet, I did get caught up at 1 John 1:9 for a while, the Christian bar of soap, I now call it. Then I started seeing first chapter of 1John, which, history reveals it is the writing from John, to the Gnostics. These were people in a gathering, that did not beleive Jesus came here to earth in the flesh. Since no flesh can please God. So John wrote the Epistle to prayerfully correct Gnosticism. That is why John said we have tasted, touched, felt and ate with Jesus. The verse nine of 1 John 1, I got to see in the greek the English is not translated correctly, it states past tense in the Greek. Then seeing Chapter 2 and seeing 1 John 2:1-2, blew my mind, then seeing the rest of those verses from verse 1 to 27 , I concluded, thankfully to God we are all forgiven by God Father in Son the two as Won for us all. Woe I said and saw Isaiah 6:1-7, Eph 1:6,7,13, 2 Cor 5:17-20.
God started opening up to me and has been training me in love to all people, regardless who anyone else is or even claims to be
I saw, when Jesus said if I only love those that love me, how can I claim to believe God and not love all. Seeing. he went one time to that cross willingly, to reconcile us all first. Then risen to give new life in his risen Life for us to love all also.
Thanks as we each learn new
Hebrews 5:12- Chapter 6, Hebrews 4:9-13
Oh, I am still in process too, thank you
