"Sorry I am not able to give you a discerning heart. Please forgive all my iniquities."
We are told in scripture to confess one to another that God may hear our prayers and forgive us. If we ask for forgiveness, even for asserting false doctrine, He will be swift to forgive us.
I started these threads by stateing that suggested false doctrine is worth pursuing in newsgroups. It gives the inventer of the doctrine space to expose themselves in measure of orthodox doctrine. It educates others as to how easly anyone can go astray and how by comparing error to eternal truth of scripture and of orthodox doctrine we can correct our error. It demonstrates how it is always best to consult spiritual advisors for a reference external to ourselves for the measure of orthodox doctrine.
May I suggest again that you take comfort in forgiveness and consult a spiritual advisor with whom to discuss those doctrines you propose that together in prayerful discussion you can find the error in them as compared to scripture and orthodox doctrine.
It is not that I, a sinner who stumbles daily, is the source by which to measure; it is by measure of orthodox doctrine preserved by the Holy Spirit in the church. My work is done in this matter. If I have offended you, please forgive me. As you pray on my behalf, God's blessing and protection and peace upon you, God have mercy on me a sinner.

"It is clear to the discerning that you have allowed the fabrications of man keep you from knowing the Word of GOD."
Actually it is not discernment, it is the self deception of rebellion, it is fabrications of a mere man who has invented new doctrine concerning the three persons of the Trinity and of God, as the whole church expressed in the creed. Man in his natural form is rebellious against that which he as an individual using self reference only falls short in measure with scripture and of the creed.
In truth, in isolation from the correction of spiritual advisors within the community of christians it is almost a certainty that self reference will lead to false doctrine. It is clear that claimed infallible discernment was wrong, a pure wishful guess only. We can not be a reference unto ourselves, the bible is full of the folly where such is done and full of God's purpose for us to be open to correction from the community of christians.
Consulting a spiritual advisor is always wise when false doctrine tempts our flawed minds that we may be corrected by the measure of orthodox doctrine. God's blessing and protection and peace upon you, thanking as always for prayer on my behalf; God have mercy on me a sinner.
