Don,
Okay, you are gong to have to dumb down your vocabulary in a serious way if we are going to talk:-)
hermeneutics???? you lost me bro'.

<<. Some here wish to believe that only through special revelation can anyone understand the Bible. This is called gnosticism and is a
serious error.>>

<<we must search the scripture ourselves and allow God to speak to directly.>>

Aren't these statements at odds with each other?

<<The bottom line is that once you have read a portion of scripture, (perhaps the book of John :>), >>

There are many on this thread who read the Bible vigorously and with great enthusiasim on a daily basis. There is hardly agreement. Perhaps God is saying different things to different people? Or perhaps it is the same thing interpreted differently?
