Oh?
How?
You admit that OTHERs can read the greek and put it into english.
Does YOUR reading of the greek give a DIFEERENT english result?
Elsie - I am editing slightly so you don’t misunderstand:
BB,
So, you admit that you can’t possibly understand the original Greek. A good start.
Lets walk this back.
That means that [ *** 100% of your own Bible is the interpretation given to you by translators *** ] others have interpreted what this portion of God’s word (which was written in Greek) means [ *** because you don’t understand the original langauges and don’t have the original documents so you have to rely on 100% on interpretations made when translating and transcribing ***].
Very interesting.
Amazing.
It sort of puts a big dent in the axe you are trying to grind [ *** because we all have to rely on others to pass Scripture on to us, so God entrusted the authenticity of that interpretation to a Church that has authority to make definitive doctrinal calls when there is discord regarding doctrine and interpretation - what gift we Catholics have - unlike Protestants who all claim YOPIOS and end up with the doctrine of homo-marriage and abortion and divorce and remarriage, etc. (when a Catholic priest goes off the reservation doctrinally at least he is known to be doctrinally in error) ***]
