It’s easy to prove me wrong. Simply find a place in scripture where Jesus called Mary His mother

in the bible there is reference to Jesus' birth. There are also references to Him being a child and being raised to honor his mom and dad. One might use logic and assume that He was taught, as a tiny lad, to refer to Mary and Joseph as mother and father.He probably did not refer to them to His friends and buddies as my woman and old man...I'll use common sense to conclude that He referred to them as My mother and father.....My mother said I had to be home before dark....sounds better than My woman said it.

It becomes a Jefferson Bible application on top of sola scriptura. You throw out all of what Matthew, Mark, Luke and John wrote except when quoting Jesus.

Causes just a few problems elsewhere..

>>One might use logic and assume<<

I will not trust my eternal future to “assumptions”.

>>I'll use common sense to conclude<<

That would be carnal “common sense” wouldn’t it? You go right ahead and do as you see fit, it is after all your eternity.

Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
