Spiritual discernment is a guide to critical thinking, not a contradiction.

Assuming you have some special capability that lets you be magically right no matter where the evidence points is the opposite of critical thinking. And that is exactly what you are doing.No wonder you get it wrong so often.

I hate arguing with videos. If you think that there are any good points in there, care to put them up for examination ?

quote:

---

I don't assume it, I know it from the evidence.

---

Really ? Because you haven’t mentioned any evidence. At all. Even when I asked. So what is this “evidence” ?

quote:

---

I gave the evidence for having spiritual discernment as the change of heart from coldness toward God and the things of God to loving God and loving His word.

---

Oh, you mean like twisting the Bible to justify your bigotry ?

quote:

---

I can add the fact that there really is a "peace that passes understanding" that comes over me when I think of biblical truths of many kinds, think of God Himself, of Jesus. That is evidence

---

It’s not evidence that you are right.

quote:

---

Also using it because you can't use it unless you recognize that it's there, and that's evidence.

---

It’s circular. If your claim to be right is based on your alleged “spiritual discernment” you can’t turn around and say it is evidence that you do have “spiritual discernment”. That’s only evidence of your irrationality.

quote:

---

Further evidence is recognizing the validity of the traditional understanding done by others who are also born again and have spiritual discernment, and despising the work of mere fleshly scholars

---

Only if they’re right. And I guess that goes into more circularity.

quote:

---

I'm sure there's more

Then you’d better start looking for it.

Shame, I was hoping for more comedy gold like the last post.Especially as I made an allusion to one of your most egregious failures.But let’s not forget the others like your insistence that the child of Isaiah 7 could only be Jesus - when the text says that the birth would be a sign of events that occurred in the reign of Ahaz.
