You label the word of God as error filled doctrine because you haven't searched it seeking of the truth. The word of God tells you that the apostles received it in Syria. The word of God tells you to come out of Egypt. You're taking Bibles that came out of Egypt and calling them the word of God because you haven't sought after wisdom, the wisdom of the written word.
I know the written word Andy, the Spirit teaches me how to apply it. I fail sometimes, and my prayer is that Spirit teach me through my failures, so I can, "go and sin no more"
We learn God’s word through Spirit, and union with God. The written word can be veiled because Spirit has not yet opened it up to us, I trust only what Christ teaces me.
So how does someone else, besides you, receive the Spirit, other than hearing the words and believing them?
How does one get born again? I can't say when or how it happened to me, it was the Spirits doing, God drew me, reproved me, corrected me, and started teaching me, I imagine that's how it will go for others.
Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. That can be the written word, but mostly it's the word built up in a minister who brings a person to saving faith.
Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Prophets aren't hired, they're not a particular denomination, licensed they're God’s gift to the church, the can pop up anywhere, anytime, and their words can be missed anywhere, anytime by those who have not been prepared by God. God gives the birth, God does the raising, God doe not require a minister, but prefers to use them, flesh and blood, just as he did with the firstborn Son of God.
God Himself came in the flesh to give us this Word, to make positively sure that we received it. And you're telling me it means nothing? I search out and received the treasures of it every day along with that of the Spirit.
Matthew 4:4 KJV But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
It is written.
