Ah dsc, first I wish you a very Merry Christmas. May it be a time of great spiritual blessing and communion for you.
As to your post...
I claim only that experience is not the basis of doctrine, or truth is reduced to common experience.
I do not dispute your right to believe whatever you wish. Nor my own. I just point out that for one who claims the name of Christ, it is an insufficient basis.
At every turn, the Savior referred to what was “written”.
God inspired men to write His message over millennia. Men and women had experiences during that time, but they while many were significant, they did not form the doctrines of belief. Nor did the Savior rely upon them. Even during His deepest temptation by Satan, He did not rely on a single experience.
Christ went back to the unchangeable Word of God each time, responding only “it is written.” In this test of the seed of the woman versus the serpent, only the Word of God prevailed as the Word of God wielded it.
Best.

Isn't it FUNNY how that worked out?
