Given the amount of confusion and myriad interpretations of said scripture...it would seem the the utter inferiority of man has made a mess of Christi’s plea that “they all might be one flock” instead we have umpteen different views of what is correct...what isn’t...what is importAnt and what isn’t... As if God said “ I am going to inspire these guys to write my word...but all generations are on their own to decide how to interpret it...all with eternal consequences in the balance
Doesn't this sort of reasoning disregard the Holy Spirit though? After all, one of His purposes/jobs/works is to lead to truth.
Give us ONE an example of a verse of the myriads of interpretations that has resulted in so much confusion that has spiritual consequences.
Show us umpteen different views on that verse. Pick one yourself.
So far as I've seen, no one verse has more than two, or at the most three possible interpretations and usually one of them is a very weak interpretation in that the context doesn't support it, or it's in conflict with the rest of Scripture, which would disqualify it as a legitimate interpretation.
So pick one and explain why disagreeing with your interpretation would have such serious consequences (which suggests going to hell).
Bonaventure: …the gates of heaven will open to all who confide in the protection of Mary. Blessed are they who know thee, O Mother of God, for the knowledge of THEE is the high road to everlasting life, and the publication of thy virtues is the way of ETERNAL SALVATION . Give ear, O ye nations; and all you who desire heaven , serve, honor Mary, and certainly you will find ETERNAL LIFE.
