Meaning to offence, but God our Loving Father knew that all of this would happen: misspellings, doctrine changes etc.

So he gave it to his Son, Jesus to say: “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” John 14:26

Without the Holy Spirit, not a single word of the Holy Scriptures can ever be understood. Is there any wonder that no one can agree.

The Spirit brings the Holy Scriptures to Life

That may be true.

I found that even with the various versions, the alternative meanings of words, the multitude of translations, that the message is quite simple and obvious, but our quest for details and facts leads us astray.

Well stated.

It also should be noted that in God’s Plan for all humanity, He could have chosen to communicate by means of golden tablets, or Divine Commands audible to the entire planet, but instead He chose to communicate His WORD by means of human communication.

Jesus Christ is perfect body, soul, and human spirit. His Word is communicated and identified with Him.

Likewise, in this Church Age, believers have been elected, exercised faith, and upon the call, their faith alone in Christ alone was made efficacious for God the Holy Spirit to create a human spirit in the believer and for God the Father to create life in that new human spirit, ergo regenerated life.

As believers we have a human spirit, which is now to dwelling place of God the Holy Spirit, who now sanctifies our thinking, our soul, which is still badly scarred from our past thinking when we weren’t yet saved.

The Gospel is the power of God.

Rom 1:16-17
(16) For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
(17) For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
