But you’re not just choosing to heed that warning yourself; you also repeatedly weaponize it against those who disagree with your theology.

Are those Jesus’ words, or is that your theology…?

These were His words ~ do they carry any weight with you…? You’ve repeatedly said the New Testament is corrupted. Is all of it corrupted, including Jesus’ words, or is only the parts that don’t line up with your theology corrupted…? Jesus quoted the old testament to Jews who already accepted the authority of it. But when He spoke to unbelievers…like the woman at the well, the rich young ruler, Pilate, and the thief on the cross…He wasn’t firing old testament verses at them.
