Why are Christians so incredibly deceived about scripture?

Thank you for saying that.
I was getting a little overly defensive.
Sorry about that.

May God bless you.

NO worries --- we are all tempted every day,
and traps are laid EVERY DAY several times
even in the house of YHWH
for anyone seeking to live HIS WAY.

BE STRONG and OF GOOD COURAGE !
Pray always as Y'SHUA SAYS CLEARLY
for [HIS] WISDOM and [HIS] STRENGTH
to endure the extreme wickednesses
all around us trying to trip us and pull us down.

It may take a few minutes,
or it may take years,
or it may take decades,
or it may never happen (YHWH KNOWS),
to learn why never to interpret HIS WORD,
and never to accept anyone who does.

And I do not believe ToBeLoved believes holiness on our part is a requirement for salvation (as we do). Hence, why we should pray for her.

You are going to have to do better than that. Please go back and post the verses I provided and provide a word by word commentary for each of them. Then we can intelligently talk about it. Just throwing up a dismissive word doesn't really prove you are right.

The pertinence I saw on topic was why so many Christians are deceived -
they trust a study, or an interpretation, or a tradition,
that is opposed to YHWH and contrary to what Y'SHUA says directly.
And as Y'SHUA says directly,
as Yochanan proclaimed also,
unless we have revelation from the FATHER
i.e. same as the disciples when Y'SHUA BREATHED ON THEM and then they understood
we would never understand either.

We cannot boast in man's knowledge nor man's wisdom nor lean on our own understanding
but our boast
is completely in CHRIST JESUS !

If your dad told you to wash the dishes,
did you need an interpreter for that ?

What you read from the Bible gets interpreted by your brain. Either God is guiding u or the devil. Many have thought they were guided by God!

Then there are people like you, who 'think' only they have the answer. Only 'they' know the truth and everyone else is wrong and doomed! You continually boast that only you are right and that God is speaking through you.

I hope you are right as otherwise woe to him that teaches incorrectly!

One should only speak about what they do in their life. God's Word says that you do not know anyone's heart and so judge Unrighteously.
Really ? All thru the OLD TESTAMENT, and the NEW TESTAMENT,
there is clear instructions otherwise,
for training of all YHWH'S PEOPLE in RIGHT LIViNG and RIGHTEOUSNESS HIS WAY.

Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition in the CC go hand in hand buddy. Better than taking wild guesses or miss-interpreting scripture like you do!

When you read something your brain 'interprets' what you read. With you, the way you are talking, you can read the Bible in any language as you know exactly what that text means. You could be guided by the devil and you wouldn't know! You could be getting sucked in by him, bit by bit.

Sola Scripture can be very dangerous. Be careful buddy. Don't let the evil one into your life! Seek spiritual guidance to make sure you are on the right path my friend.

Some people are easily deceived buddy. Be very careful. Pray hard about it.

God bless you my friend in Christ

So then you recommend "Sola scriptura" AND "prayer"? What made you think it was done any other way?
