I like this part in your article of assumed truth lol

" I believe every word that the Bible says about the lake of fire; I don't believe what Rome says about it, nor what the apostate Churches say about it, nor what tradition says about it; but I certainly believe what the Bible says about it." link

Duh!.. they are all drawing from the same bible.. His argument is over a matter of interpretation and this has been the pinnacle argument that has always gone on.. it is what has caused one person to say to another.. " you are not a christian " .. " You are not saved ", " You are not accepted ". " You are Seperated from God " , " You dont hear God "

and on and on and on and on....

MEANWHILE.. back at the ranch of sanity

Others have moved beyond the correct interpretation and looked at the very text and those who delievered it..

As there is no point disputing interpretation if you dont have text or people which is/are 100% truthful at least about God

This then becomes a new argument but one which is easily understood without the need for extensive research

If today people can skew what they THINK God has said to them, and people today scrutinize any view about God, then the same scrutinity and ability to skew things about what a person THOUGHT God said to them is to be applied to people of old .
