Is God thought to be a poet always speaking "in reference to" something else?

You know what that means, don't you?

It means that...

Really!!!! Do not INTERPRET it to "mean" something else (because I am not REFERRING TO something else), I am not speaking poetically.

You might have thought I was REFERRING to something else, but I was actually speaking the TRUTH and spoke in "no uncertain terms", but if you INTERPRETED what I was saying to mean "something else", there will be alot of senseless controversy and we will not be able to get to the matters of what really is important (progress, not mere "change"). This very same thing has been happening for two thousand years when people read the bible because humanity thinks that God is a poet and artistically REFERS to "something else". Well, let me burst humanity's bubble,...

.................GOD IS NOT A POET.

We can INTERPRET poems, dreams, etc.. Many people want to "speak in tongues" because they want the fame of "INTERPRETATION" and "VISIONS". It is the imaginations of the heart (fantasy) that causes the "strong delusion" (our "stumbling block", Ezekiel 14:3).

Human nature is that most people aren't in the habit of speaking in "no uncertain terms" as to ensure that the other person truly understands what they have to say (because they really don't "love the truth"). They want to KNOW the truth, but they don't care to SPEAK truth. By their own hand, they receive POETIC JUSTICE (since they don't SPEAK/give truth, neither shall they understand/get truth,...they shall always "INTERPRET").

Ephesians 4:25
"Therefore, putting away falsehood, let every one speak the truth with his neighbor".

Truth is very important...

2 Thessalonians 2:10
"because they refused to love the truth AND SO BE SAVED".

They will always "interpret" (believing that everything is being REFERRED to, seeing but not understanding) and will believe that God is the "poet in the sky" (and they "interpret" instead of UNDERSTAND). They have no regard for God's will and desires, they will only have regard for what God says if it is a "command", "commandment", law, etc. (Well,...seek and you shall find).

Ephesians 5:17
"Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is".

The Lord said that we must "spread the gospel" (let those who never heard of Him know about Him and what He did on the cross), but He didn't say that we must convince others to be sincere and understand the "depths of God" and the "fruit of light" or His LIVING water baptism (I only convince/explain when it is MY will). After a certain point, I simply have to accept that many people will simply REFUSE to love my Lord/"the truth", 2 Thessalonians 2:10. God's words are "integral", they all mean the same. The true human being (son of the most high) is integral with God in the body of His son.

So, don't think God is in the habit of always "REFERRING" (He says what He means and means what He says).
