This would be almost laughable if it were not so pathetic. The “interpretation” in this passage is interpreting the foreign tongues. But, that would require one to read it in context, something evidently Rome won’t allow. Reading some of this junk really makes me want to take back that remark about not beating up Rome. On second thought that dark cult needs a good dose of hell. After all, that is where the organization is bound.

The problem quickly becomes: which believer to believe? Calvinism, Arminianism, Dispensationalism, Oneness Pentecostalism, Messianic Judaism, etc..?

We see in the NT that this is not what is taught. Paul does not say: read this letter and whatever you think is doctrine is doctrine.

The Council of Jerusalem did not arrive at two different doctrines, did not leave it up to each individual.

“One Lord, one faith, one baptism.”

"This would be almost laughable if it were not so pathetic."

I hope you are not implying that is an infallible interpretation? Why then would St. Paul draw an analogy between misunderstanding and tongues if we are to assume that is what he meant?

"If then I do not grasp the meaning of what someone is saying, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and the speaker is a foreigner to me." - 1 Corinthians 14:11
