Unbelievers, Faith Is A Simple Test: To Find Out If You Are Teachable?

[JAG ..]

If it turns out that you are not teachable, then obviously you
know more than God knows and there will be no place for you
in God's Heaven.

Heaven can only have one Supreme Being.

A Supreme Being that will never consent to become a student
to be taught wisdom and truths by any of His fallen and very
sinful human creatures.

Humans who characteristically do things like democratically electing
Adolf Hitler to power . . .

. . . and who follow the Rev Jim Jones to Jonestown and drink the Kool Air
and near 1000 then lay down to die . . .

. . . and who follow David Koresh (Branch Dividians) 75 of 84 DIED ...

and the Heavens Gate Cult - 39 dead by suicide . . .

. . . then World War 1 the totally unnecessary war that killed
many millions and all for absolutely NOTHING . . .

So?

So why would God want to be taught by the likes of fallen corrupted
and in many cases totally INSANE humans?

Why put any faith in nutty insane dangerous human beings?

Just the opposite the . . .

Lord Jesus said, "Have faith in God." {Mark 11:22}

And you will for certain make a Free Will decision on that and you will
end up saying either:

(1) Yes I will have faith in God and allow God to teach me what
He wants me to know.

or you will end up saying:

{2) I will not. NO NO NO, I will NOT.
(and THAT leads to John 3:16's perish)

Thoughts?

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

1John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Many become indoctrinated by the man made doctrines of the church they go to and become stiffnecked to consider any other teachings that come from the Holy Spirit as they become blinded to truth. If what one teaches does not line up with scripture then do not believe what they teach and also look out for those cherry picking one verse teachings.

Thanks for your comments.

Regarding what you bolded:

My OP specifically and clearly made the point that it was God not men
that should be doing the teaching, when I said this:

"(1) Yes I will have faith in God and allow God to teach me what
He wants me to know."__From the OP

Apart from the Holy Spirit man can teach us nothing of the Spiritual things of God.

Good thread

Hi Jag
There'll be plenty of room for me in heaven.

Because I know what I know,
And I know what I don't know,
And what I dont know is more.

And I know the Almighty God that created the universe cannot be completely known, but we grasp what we can and hold on to it.

Every little bit that I can know, creates more awe.
Maybe this is why I like theology,,,the study of God.

Oh. And i think that God teaches everyone some things that they specifically need to know.

And Jesus is our best teacher.
