Proof texts and proof texting. -
July 24th, 2012, 12:49 AM
Proof texts are texts of which meaning can not be changed.
There are hundreds of such texts and they form a pattern on important matters.
All words of multiple meanings in not proof texts must be rendered according to the pattern set up in the proof texts on a specific matter.
Example of proof texts in the matter of God’s nature are Jn 17:3, Jn 20:17 and so on.
Example of not proof texts in the same matter are Jn 1:1-3, Jn 20:28.
Proof texting is formulating of views or opinions and providing texts to support them.
Christians developed thousands of contradicting views and opinions & managed to “prove” them by proof texting.
It is done by:
1. Rejecting the proof texts pattern on the matter,
2. Adding to God’s word of their own imaginations,
3. Rendering the multiple meaning words out of the texts/context/overall context set up by the proof texts pattern and making it suitable for the purpose.
Example of rejecting the proof texts pattern on God’s nature is rejecting hundreds of proof texts like Jn 4:23, Jn 6:44-45+65, Jn 10:34-36, (godrulz and Colossians among many) Jn 14:6+10, 17:3, Jn 20:28, Mt 6:9, 1Cor 8:6, Rom 1:7 (and opening of each epistle).
Example of adding to God’s word is adding the word Jesus to Jn 1:1-3, adding the three heavenly witnesses to 1Jn 5:7 and so on.
Rendering of multiple meaning words out of context is “he” instead of “it” in Jn 1:1-3, “God” instead of “King” in Jn 20:28 and so on. Besides, there is a range of texts whereby Jesus is supposed to create the world for himself in clear disregard of Isa 55:11, Ps 33:6+9, Heb 11:3 where the word rhema rendered as word never means Jesus.
And misunderstanding texts and not accepting correction is foolish
Pro 18:2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
We have all been fools at onetime or another.
Psalm 1[/color] and Job 28:28
Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Joh 4:23 "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

I am certain that the prophet doesn't mean delight in understanding of man made lies.
So are you going to speak from God's word instead of from man's imagination?

Well, I grew up in a Cat’s family & in a Catholic crazy country.
Thanks God for opening of my eyes, years and heart.

There is no need for that.
Jesus often used sharp contrast and harsh words.
The eternal life is not a piece of sweet one can discard without much of worry.
I know of people who were turned to God by someone I don't want to socialise anymore because of his arrogance.
Many tried your way and were bullied out from forums including this one.
Millions upon millions were murdered by soft spoken Trinitarians.

The truth hurts, bybee.
I disagree. Truth heals. Truth cleanses. Truth guides. Truth is love.
Actually, I am not at all soft-spoken! And I would not bully anyone for their own spiritual beliefs.
Millions upon millions have been murdered by loud mouthed dictators, foaming at the mouth shouting their venomous agendas
too!
If you speak truth it will stand as truth.
If you presume to judge that you know more than I by belittling me prepare for battle.
Your ideas count for nothing, because you have no proof text that proves the bible is written by God. Which Bible was written by God according to you?
You tell us. You're the one harping on about proof texting. I'm not.
So provide for us a proof text with proves the bible is written by God.

I agree with you that the Trinitarian dictators caused millions upon millions of Trinitarians to follow them (instead of the Lord Jesus) and murder millions upon millions of their own.
I agree with you that truth should heal, cleans, guide; that truth should be love but you are talking about people not of this barbaric Trinitarian world deprived of the Father the only one true God.

Er....I'm a little too experienced for you Mr Jerzy.
You'll first of all stop playing dumb. You will answer the question implicit in my statement that you have no proof text that proves the bible is written by God.
So you'll answer me first.
And you know I have your cornered, which is why you are trying to turn things around.
So....I shall keep you in the corner that you and I both know you are in.

I always know a rot by its smell.
We were on this one before, weren’t we "experienced"?
There are no original scripts as far as I know.
There are many often differing copies of which some bear scars of those who were fabricating their "truth".
The Trinitarian scholars keep pointing to some of the Trinitarian dirty tricks and I believe them.
Now we will see your usual experienced pissing on a wall, won’t we Colossians?
