The idea of comparing scripture with scripture comes from 3 NT concepts found as verses.
1. Rightly dividing the word
2. Discerning the word
3. comparing spiritual with spiritual
So, the word is God's LIght written down. And its locked. Its a mystery a total maze.
A unbeliever cannot do what i just posted as 1-3.
And a carnal believer will become lost in the maze of the word and end up believing and teaching everything but the truth.
Your "cult of the virgin" does not want you to know the Bible or to understand it.
This Cult forbid you and all of its deceived to read their bible, until 1961, when they changed this doctrine.
See, all cults understand that to control you, they have to control what you know....... and by doing that , they control what you BELIEVE.
That is how they control your MIND.
Your water cult, wants you to come to them, to the priests and so forth and they can tell you what they want you to think, that is all a part of how they indoctrinate and own their followers.
