What are you suggesting?

1) The matter is not knowable with any certainty. God intentionally left this a jump ball.

2) The matter is knowable but you are not certain at this time.

3) The matter is an issue of personal taste or preference.

4) God moves different people in different directions on this matter, that perhaps truth is relative.

5) ???




5) That each person is different. We all believe what we believe based on our own studies. People can and do change over time. Sometimes we learn things that cause us to re-evaluate our belief systems. YHWH may reveal things slowly to people that would have a hard time accepting a drastic change to their belief system.

Isn't that really a variation on (2), or am I missing something? Aren't you saying the truth is out there, is objective, and is knowable, but we all progress to the truth at our own pace as we are lead by the Holy Spirit?
