Yep. I strongly support YOPIOS on my part because my relationship is with Jesus. I don’t interpret it in a vacuum. In fact, as I read the perspective of others on the Word of God, I sometimes change my position as I more thoroughly study a subject. e.g. I went from pre-trib to “mid trib”, or believing the bible teaches, regarding the lost in eternity, annihilation over eternal suffering.
