"Be concerned with your own condition. You cant manage anyone elses."
I think you sorta made my point. But there are folks here who insist that people who follow different sects or interpretations than their own particular ones are just 'wrong, wrong wrong'.

There are guidelines and principles within Scripture to tell us how to interpret it. You don't just get to take off and interpret things according to the way you feel.
Using your own words is a lazy and dangerous way to interpret Scripture. This practice provides us with the cults and weirdness we have today.

I think that any authentic scripture must have meaning on many different levels - because individuals have different levels of understanding, different perspectives, etc.
(What you suggest seems very limiting - and even a bit tyrannical to me. That’s why I say that God is ‘bigger’ than that.)
Speaking of ‘danger’ - I think it’s very dangerous to insist that everyone else see ANYTHING in precisely the same way that you do.
