If you don't agree with "my" interpretation than dispute it on a scriptural basis. But I don't accept tradition as authoritative so if you appeal to it I'm only going to go right back to scripture. You are only going to go right back to you personal interpretation of Scripture. By what authority do you deem to interpret Scripture for the rest of us? Again it's not "my" interpretation. All followers of Jesus Christ have been given his spirit and as long as we let his spirit live in and through us we are merely mouthpieces for the real power and authority that dwells within, Jesus Christ.

But our interpretations differ! How do we resolve this? If the Spirit leads us why has he been peddling different, often contradictory, versions of the truth since the "reformers" came along. Is God the author of confusion?
