I taught myself how to translate them perfectly according to the grammatical inflection of the autographed languages of the bible. A feat that took me years. It took me so long because of my own theological prejudice of what those words MUST mean right? As well as, the theological prejudice of my teachers.
To this end, I LOVE God's Word found in Scripture(the bible), and HATE every theological nuanced imposed upon it! The English translation of the bible is soo bad--the simple truths about the right here, right now, that life I discovered, has been completely burned beyond recognition!
For some crazy ass reason, the hierarchy of the church thought it was talking about "salvation", "sin" and "spirit" while inventing religion and worship so they could have their power!
I look at the hierarchy, known as "the clergy", with their invented nonsense, like a brick looks at a stained glass window!
I did not "imagine" proper noun declension or, verb conjugation! I honored it as it is written in the autographed language by the original writers. I found something gorgeous! Did I do something wrong?
Oh, the same scripture written by man, the same man who created religion and theology. Gotcha! You haven't found enlightenment; you're still a fool for god as are those whom you rail against on the basis of religion and theology.
Sorry, but your personal interpretation is no more accurate than that of any other theist. Nice try, however.
