If the “message” is different for everyone, does it mean that those who wrest the scriptures to deny the Trinity and promote heresies are “correct” in some relative way?

I am reminded of the story about the BLIND MEN surrounding an elephant, and trying to describe the whole elephant based on their sense of 'touch'.

Each of them was 'correct', but none really knew the WHOLE TRUTH. They were each limited by their own 'point of view' and their own 'personal experience'.

No matter what, the whole elephant was always there.
