Actually, you added something profound that needs to be investigated. I thought I hinted towards that, didn't want to infer your witness was lacking in merit. I have the attention span of a gnat; walking a straight line isn't something easy for me to do. I was taking as direct a route from point a to point b as I could. I don't imagine it will be something easily accomplished for someone to assemble the pieces I've scattered through this thread. I saw that many enjoyed the spin and I didn't think it was necessary to take that from anyone. It can help with a person's demeanor.

Thats okay, I just add and go, I have a difficult time in the area of discussion of things in any back and forth kind of way, as to how another might reason with something, just post and find something else, my attention span isnt much greater then yours.

Im cool with you just working it out on your own here thats all lol

I didnt wish to be rude Im just not good at sorting out how others reason with things so much as pay attention as to how I might more, its hard for me to untie ends others might put together which I might not, thats all.

Not here to wrangle with you either, that is not my intent. Post and go (thats all)

Lol, I don't see you wrangling with me. You have positive input. Please allow me to share keys in the way I've been shown. In the bible, there are words used in a way that seems common to us. Nouns for instance. But it is the way the nouns are used that is uncommon (counter-intuitive to our language). Independently, those nouns were shown to me as pictures; a fish for instance. So, I called it picture language, because each picture needed to be understood in a way that is not common to me; I had to be shown. I began to see that the bible used a specific 'nature' for each picture. It wouldn't be until later that I used the biblical phrase "according to each kind' So the challenge then turned to putting these pictures together, which also is contrary to the way I've learned since birth. I had to be shown. Saying complete sentences was difficult because I needed to learn a specific 'nature, according to each kind'. I learned to call it life language; because the 'life' of each word needed to be specific to the language.

After a few years (I'm kinda slow), I noticed that the bible uses all of creation in this same manner. This is when and where I learned to call it creation language. Not that any part was contrary to another part, but all biblical language is spoken in natures, not pictures; Pictures being the larger more common language we use. Often times slang enters into our definitions of those pictures, according to the things which seem right to us at the moment. An example of the difference; "The obedience of God's people is to fasten the donkey to the vine, and the foal of the donkey to the choice vine." Using pictures the way we do naturally, the writing doesn't make any sense at all. But when a person is shown natures that can be found within each of us, according to each kind (in this case a donkey, the foal of a donkey, and a vine and the choice vine; "According to each kind" takes on a specific understanding. In other words, the word is more than a picture, it is a living word. These things I've been shown. If I do not see creation language, I know by this that the writing is not from the ancients. No, what I saw from you is a genuine desire to share a language that isn't easy to understand, because it is not common. I hope you don't hold back.
