We have historic doctrine held in common by Evangelicals, Protestants, Reformed, Baptists, Methodists, Orthodox, and more. But these are all wrong because you never studied what they teach and don't care to?
Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

You confirm what I said...YOU believe that you are so smart and have everything correct...and no one else is a smart or as 'right' as you.
Who said that I did not? We complain a lot about the Catholics, but we have never been able to shed all of the baggage brought with us... Growth is what is needed not more jumping on the old band wagons. We need to make use of the teachers and other ministers of God until...
"Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love." Ephesians 4:13-16
That is NOT until we are conformed to the ones who did look right in a moment of time but now are stagnating instead of looking to Him and following Him.
There is no unity apart from creeds. They are the biblical doctrines people come together on.
“Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.” (Romans 16:17)
"We" ?
I agree with you that you are in need of someone who know more than you....
How did you determine the extent of what I know or that "authors" of books know more than my Teacher?
Glory to God,
Taken

Everyone comes across spiritual truth in a slightly different order, and their views on what the scripture teaches may be affected by that order and also by the circumstances in which they are ministered to by specific scriptures. God has created us, and caused our lives to progress, in such a way that we will all be slightly different in what we believe specifically. Of course there are doctrines that are specifically essential for salvation; but how we perceive these doctrines may be varied based on how we received them, and the circumstances in which we received them, and the order of those circumstances. Some because of the circumstances that they are given never do come to an agreement with essential doctrines; and I suppose that these are the non-elect.
.
This is foolishness my friend, the foolishness of foolish men who apparently just had to have what they could consider an unquestionable absolute. Man cannot comprehend such an absolute but he insists on having his way.
To properly mark them first you must know who they are. Whose doctrine is in error according to God? Have we asked Him and received His answer? If not, we had best hold back with the marking until we have.
These 2 verses have been brought to my attention recently …
“Repent of your wickedness and pray to the Lord.
Perhaps he will forgive your evil thoughts (i.e. sins).” (Acts 8:22, NLT)
“Dear friends, if we deliberately continue sinning after we have
received knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice
that will cover these sins” (Hebrews 10:26, NLT)
“Repent of your wickedness and pray to the Lord.
Perhaps he will forgive your evil thoughts (i.e. sins).” (Acts 8:22, NLT)
“Dear friends, if we deliberately continue sinning after we have
received knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice
that will cover these sins” (Hebrews 10:26, NLT)
Start at verse 9 in Acts and read until verse 24 for the full picture.
Hebrews 10, verse 26, doesn't describe what the sinning is but verse 29 does. It's never wise to throw out just one verse without the surrounding verses with it because it's just too easy to read into something that just isn't there. Paul speaks to the believer in verse 22 and to a different group of people in verse 26.
Why are you at odds with Christendom? And assume they haven't had the truth until your group, whatever it is, came along?
Do you agree with Christendom about the trinity? Or reject it and agree with Islam, Judaism, every cult on the face of the earth? The Trinity is the only doctrine unique to Christianity.
I asked your intent for quoting a particular Scripture to me.
The intent (ie purpose) of quoting a scripture, is told us in:
2 Tim 3:6
All Scripture is given by the inspiration of God, as is profitable;
For Doctrine
For Reproof,
For Correction;
For Instruction
In Righteousness.
How did I take it? (Luke 6:45) I didn't. Quoting me random Scriptures revealed no connection to anything. Thus, why I asked you your intent.
You reply you are "sharing" what you have learned.
Luke 6:45
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out the evil treasure of his heart bring forth that which is evil: for the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Then you ask me, IF YOU are good or evil.
I can not pronounce to YOU what you ARE.
I can notice your fruits.
I think you show the intent of your heart is to encourage others to seek the Word of God.
However I also think you erroneously teach a man MUST consider and trust what MEN have decided is important, BEFORE and ABOVE the whole of what the Lord Himself has approved.
And you berate men who do not agree with you.
You assess yourself and you decide.
Glory to God,
Taken
