I have been doing biblical exegesis for 30 years - so shut up. You are in error.

Ahhhhhh.....an appeal to authority. That typically Catholic creature, usually so despised by Protestants.

You must yield to me for I have greater authority in this matter; I have studied Scripture for 30 years. In the end, it is important, isn't it? In order to press your point there's nothing else left, is there? When conflicting personal views on Scripture collide, it's quite amusing to see Protestants reverting to that horrific Catholic practice of asserting that correct interpretation of Scripture requires a certain authority.

very well put! It's hilarious to see this. It's like Calvin saying "believe in sola scriptura, but that means MY version"
