What are you talking about???? My "constant reference" to Matt's post...? This topic is ABOUT Matt's post. This is a discussion, yet you falsely accuse me because I'm referring to the original post? That's absurd.
Again, I DID NOT call "knowledge evil." You read something into my post that is not there.

Just FYI, I just read Matt’s post 3 times, and I don’t see anything that will change my thinking on any of his conclusions. I’m sorry if that goes against your experience as well. There isn’t anything personal, but to me, I’ll stand on something solid and verifiable, rather that trusting my own experiences and verifying those experiences by some other special leadings. If you have some special point that you keep referring to, please highlight it and make it specific what you are trying to say. I don’t speak mind games.

Not trying to change your thinking...this is a discussion. You need to tell me what you need clarified. Specifically. I said what I meant. If you don't understand something, you need to be specific. I can't possibly guess what I need to clarify.
Are you calling my walk with the Lord "mind games"? Really? If you don't understand what I'm saying, say so. Be specific. Don't disparage my experiences, my walk with the Lord. Don't misrepresent my words to others who are reading this forum.

Also, I guess it’s pretty cool to assume that everyone who asks someone for Biblical reference, is only knows/seek things “about Him” and just trying to know the Bible, but those who are in the “know”, and have some special connections are the ones that actually “know Him”. I think I heard that before somewhere, but I will just assume that it’s not what was meant there.

You're mocking me. Your disparaging, twisting of my words make a mockery of my walk with the Lord...because...it's different from your own? Because you don't understand what I'm saying? If you can "assume that it's not what was meant" then why say it?
I'm not trying to change what you think. I'm just presenting my own view of 1 Tim. 4:1-3.
