Only a fool with take a parable literally.
Do you know how many examples of kingdom of heaven, Jesus used as example.

If not that you are dumb, when Jesus was given the parable, who were the audience?
Were the Pharisees and high priests there? Did they represent the rich men?
Did Lazarus represent Lazarus?

1 Corinthians 4:6
And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes;
that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written,
that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.

O, oh, so you're one to twist and incorrectly quote bible abi?
Since, you're so quick in flinging out 1 Corinthians 4:, why not tell what its parent verses are (i.e. put the devil to shame by displaying the letter and ethos of 2 Timothy 2:15)

Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.” Then you will not be puffed up in being a follower of one of us over against the other.
—1 Corinthians 4:6; NIV

This should speak for itself, shouldn't it? Evidence shows that the original King James Version had many grave errors, and that called for a revision of that translation. In fact, 1 Corinthians 4:6 in the new King James version reads thus:

2 Corinthians 13:1
This is the third time I am coming to you.
At the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every word be established.

Its this easy to stumble, whenever the bible is quoted out of context and especially worse when quoted in isolation.

You are trying so hard to make a case, built and staged on just one bible verse, and feebly doing so, without fully understanding, appreciating and working out the contextual meaning of the composition of the verse (i.e. 1 Corinthians 4:6)

You're found wanting, when, I asked you of a witness verse (i.e. refer to: Since, you're so quick in flinging out 1 Corinthians 4:, why not tell what its parent verses are)

1 Corinthians 4:6 is an offshoot of what OT verse?

At the mouth of two or three, eh? Well, let me see: Two other witnesses would be Moses (Deuteronomy 4:2) and Agur (Proverbs 30:5, 6).

I don't believe as you do that holy spirit guides us in matters where the Bible stays silent. The Bible stays silent only on things the God doesn't want to reveal, and if He doesn't want to reveal it neither will his spirit reveal it. (Deuteronomy 29:29)
I don't believe as you do that the Pre-Christian Scriptures is ‘for the understanding of children.’ (Romans 15:4)

When I say I won't speak disparagingly of your beliefs, I mean such in the context of this discussion—although the same is true in any discussion I have with anyone.


As for 1 Corinthians 4:6, the rule implies that God’s servants are not to teach anything that goes beyond the laws and principles expressed in God’s inspired Word. For example, Christians should not go beyond the limits that the Scriptures set regarding how to view themselves and others. The Corinthians had fallen into the trap of boasting in certain men, maybe Apollos and even Paul. They favored one person over the other and were creating disunity. But earlier in the same letter, Paul quoted where it was written that the one who boasts should boast in God, and he later added that no one should boast in men. (1 Corinthians 1:31; 3:21) Later, in verse 7 of 1 Corinthians 4, he also cautioned them against boasting in themselves.
As stewards of God's mysteries, Christians are given talents and abilities by God to build up the congregation, (1 Corinthians 4:1, 2) and it stands to reason that everyone won't be given the same talents and abilities. Really, there was no reason then for the Corinthians to boast either in themselves, in one another, or in someone else. And keeping in mind “the things that are written” would help them to avoid this danger.


Do you understand the context some other way?

Have you any idea of what the inexhaustible function of the Holy Spirit aka Spirit of Truth is?

You are still doing wuruwuru to the answer

Apostle Paul, was not thinking nor referring to Deuteronomy 4:2, Proverbs 30:5, 6, Deuteronomy 29:29 or Romans 15:4, when he penned 1 Corinthians 4:6

You keep on betraying the fact that you dont understand at where in OT, Apostle Paul was coming from when he penned 1 Corinthians 4:6

In addition, it appears that rather than be a direct quote from the Pre-Christian Scriptures, 1 Corinthians 4:6 may have been the general thrust of the Pre-Christian Scriptures urges us to modestly do as the word of God says, no more and no less. Paul was paraphrasing for the context of that discussion. We find such paraphrasing of the SENSE of the Scriptures many times in the Christian Scriptures. For example, James 4:5. Ephesians 5:14 may have been a common saying among the early Christians which reflected a true understanding of the effects of the teachings of Jesus, although it too was not a direct quotation from the Scriptures.

Philippians 3:5
I was circumcised when I was eight days old.
I am a pure-blooded citizen of Israel
and a member of the tribe of Benjamin
—a real Hebrew if there ever was one!
I was a member of the Pharisees,
who demand the strictest obedience to the Jewish law.

Do not feel entitled to beliefs, you havent a Scooby Do understanding of

Everyone is entitled to spurt out opinions willy nilly, but not entitled to facts

Kk, lets put the rubber to the road, and test to see a few of what you believe
1. Do you believe that man is made tripartite?
2. Do you believe that every good gift comes from YHWH aka Yahweh or Jehovah?
3. Do you believe that it is your soul (i.e. you), not your body or your spirit (i.e. ruach, the living or life force aka wind pka breath of God) who will on Judgment Day, face and give account of all your thoughts, deeds, words, actions before the Judge?
4. Which out of you (i.e. your soul), body (i.e. your flesh) and spirit (i.e. your living or life force) gets destroyed in the Lake of Fire?
5. Do you agree, accept and believe that extra-terrestrial beings (e.g. spirits aka hosts of heaven, demons aka fallen angels) do not possess souls? (i.e. Acts 2:41)

Apostle Paul from being a reformed Pharisee (i.e. Philippians 3:5 above) was fully conversant with the Torah, hence at any slightest opportunity, always, will sprinkle his letters with reference back ups he knew way back from the OT and so 1 Corinthians 4:6 is not spared this Apostle Paul's idiosyncrasy

Now, it is with the backdrop of Deuteronomy 17:18-20 in mind that he dictated and/or wrote 1 Corinthians 4:6. What you fail to know, recognise and understand, is that he essentially was amplifying the rule of humility and modesty principle, written in Deuteronomy 17:18-20. Capisce now?
