everything but the Word of God, which anyone can understand if they make the effort.

I would suggest you start with 2 Peter 1:20 which does not condone private interpretation of Scripture. Can there be more than one interpretation of the Bible? No. The word "truth" is used several times in the New Testament. However, the plural version of the word "truth" never appears in Scripture. Therefore, there can only be one Truth. That is why there are so many different churches all claiming to have the truth. In truth, your Bible was compiled by the Catholic Church.

Prophecy of Scripture......

2 Peter 1:21
20 First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,
21 because no prophecy ever came by the impulse of man, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. *

Big difference.
