Clear said: “MY SPECIFIC QUESTION WAS (AND STILL IS): WHY is the Jehovahs Witness interpretations and theology to take priority over the interpretation and theology of ancient Judeo-Christian theology?”
Walter claimed: “I myself have my own Theology I explain my fundamental beliefs with Jesus words and the apostles words in agreement Alone. That's it!”
Ooookay.
Do you realize that making yet another, strange and incorrect, claim may be self- reassuring, but, yet again, this new claim still does not answer the question you were asked?
This pattern of avoiding questions is as troubling as the imagination that you, somehow create your theology without engaging in a (dubious) degree of understanding and interpreting what you have read.
Walter, You have already admitted you cannot remember even a single paragraph after you read it. How does this inability to retain even minimal context affect your ability to create accurate context to your readings?
You quote incorrect English versions of scriptures you seem to think you understand. How does this inability to know what the actual Greek source text even says, affect your degree of understanding and the credibility you give yourself?
You have repeatedly used a concordance instead of a lectionary in defining meanings of ancient words. What does such a basic mistake indicate about your understanding of translation (and thus, what text is accurate and what is inaccurate)?
You quote incorrect English versions of scriptures you seem to think you understand.
For example, Is Acts 20:28 in the Jehovahs Witness New World Translation created by Franz represent the actual and most correct biblical source text? 44 of 46 other main bibles render the question differently? Is the NWT bible correct or are the other 44 incorrect?
If you don’t know what the correct text is, then how can you claim to be reading the correct text or making the correct interpretations that underlie your personal theology?
Can you clarify ANY of this?
Walter, I don't doubt your sincerity and earnestness and I think your, apparently, loving nature is a wonderful example for the rest of us. You seem to be kind and you are an example to me in this regard. However, being "nice" doesn't itself, provide any motivation to think your theology is superior to another Christians conflicting theology and their good data that undermines your theology. I also feel that IF you are correct that you cannot read a paragraph and remember it after just reading it, this sort of disability means that I honor you for your wonderful efforts to keep trying to read and make some sense of what you read and abandon errors you find and adopt new and superior data as you are exposed to it. Good luck Walter.
