Proverbs 3:5-9 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding...

Proverbs 3:5ff is not a verse that overrides the clear teachings of Christ Jesus and our teacher the Holy Spirit in the Epistles. It is incorrect usage of Proverbs 3:5ff to be invoked in order to override other clear teachings in the New Testament. Besides, Proverbs was written to the Jews for a completely purpose in which everybody today understands Proverbs. One day I will post those truths for all to see once my book is complete.

If Christ teaches us in Ephesians 1:4 "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world...". Then we are not to utilize or invoke Proverbs 3:5ff to override these clear teachings.

I disagree.

Please contunue to study His word with an open mind and heart.
It is very dangerous to say that you have some special insight into His truth.

I will not argue this point further.

Peace to you and love.
