If you're MOTA then Titus 1:6 isn't cited - suddenly we must go back to the OT for Scriptural guidance. Matthew 18 isn't relevant anymore, because now we have to cover Drunken Noah. No wonder they need so much training in the Lord's Recovery: it's needed to be able to ignore what's plainly written for all to see, and focus instead on what isn't written, but is rather self-serving conceptual overlay.

That's probably why most Christians don't know these things - they have eyes that can read, and still-functioning brains that haven't been conditioned into reflexive thoughtlessness. "He who has ears to hear" indeed.
