It would stand to reason that passages of Scripture that only serve to give us knowledge about GOD, would be comparable to fruit on the tree that is seen to make one wise to know how GOD does things, even though HE says HIS ways are past finding out.
There is also a sure and precise dividing line that can be used to rightly divide the WORD of GOD between passages that build up the heart attitude of JESUS within a believer and passages that do not.
If our Spiritual eye is singularly focused on JESUS and HIS teachings for our lives about LOVE, kindness, compassion, and charity. Then we realize how unimportant all of our dividing theologies really are.
The heart that is humbly seeking in obedience will gain the light to recognize stumbling blocks and proclaim them as such. It will also realize that the Pearl of Great Price is HIS LOVE alive in our hearts, and that a little leven from any side doctrine other than what JESUS tells us to be living is to be seen for exactly what it is ..... a stumbling block laid in the WORD for those who are not child like and obediently seeking HIM.
None of what i have said declares anyones state of salvation, for that is also not our to pass judgement on. Yes the information is in there and you are free to use GOD'S WORD however you please, but remember it is a sharp sword and we are children, without the FATHER'S guidance we will most likely be cut.
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
GOD is LOVE, LOVE is Greatest, and what so ever things are of LOVE are what we are to think on, and yet we keep ourselves divided because we pick and choose some verses over others without realizing they do not edify the heart attitude of CHRIST within us.
What we should be doing is seeking JESUS for more of HIS LOVE to be real in our hearts that HE may be shown real to those in this world who need HIM. We are ALL in the same boat when it comes to needing to grow in CHRIST LOVE.
GOD Bless
