Nice to be cordial, but you still need to work on your 'language' (rhema).....
Nice to be cordial, but you still need to work on your 'language' (rhema).....
Thoughts considered, as long as you also thoughtfully consider my commentary, insights and points of view concerning the subject, in fairness and respect.
I find it deplorable and unnecessary to refer to the UB, or any other religious/philosophical works, principles or schools of thought that another person may find 'useful' or of value at any point in their spiritual journey as 'fecal matter' and other such 'sick' terms. Its crude, unscholarly and despicable. Why the need to use such gross terms? How would you like your special brand of theology, metaphysics, philosophy or religious book (Bible) to be called 'fecal matter'? that's sickening really.
This shows your 'rhema' has some pretty foul and vulgar elements in it, that make up your psyche and reflect (as a mirror) your concepts of 'God' and 'religion', poo-pooing on anything you find 'different' or 'adversarial' to it. Its uncalled for. Period. It does nothing to envalue or prove your own views as 'better' or more correct, in fact the very language actually demeans your person and shows your own 'mentality' comes from a 'foul' place. Its offensive.
Moving along.....

If you've read the first 12 papers, what in them do you find that is valueless? Can specify anything in particular? Its teaching on the nature/character/attributes of 'God' is magnificent and awe-inspiring, building upon and enhancing the previous revelations and records of our religious heritage within all world religious traditions.

What you don't realize is what underlies all of this for everyone.
Rhema and the hearing of it is a hypostasis transforming a hypostasis. Hypostasis is the foundational underlying absolute assured substantial reality of existence. All human "beings" are an ousia (essence) underlied by a hypostasis (substance).
Rhema is the thing spoken about. The substance (hypostasis) of thought and speech. Faith is the substance (hypostasis) that comes by hearing (hearkening) to the rhema. That faith is the determinant in the qualitative existence of the hypostasis underlying the ousia.
Whatever one has heard in written or vocalized form, has determined their hypostasis. The human hypostasis in conjoined to whatever hypostasis of faith has come from whatever rhema.
You wouldn't just "BE". Your qualitative existence of "being" has been determined by whatever rhema you've heard. And it began after your conception at about four months gestational in the womb, and has continued to this day.
You're a product of rhema, whether you can ever recognize it or not. You just can't ever really know what rhema is in this context for several reasons.
That's why you've searched high and low. You've never found the one rhema that obviates the fallacy of all others.
Despite my bluntness, I truly grieve for your continuous death in all these things that you mistake for life. You're heard as much false rhema as anyone who's ever lived. I'm more sad for you than anything else.
But hey... I must be off ignore, or you clicked on my post. How 'bout that. Maybe the one true hypostasis of the one true Rhema will have its audience by grace to bring the true hypostasis of faith in your heart. That would be glorious.
Ponder these things if you dare.
