Doctrinal humility
The biggest reason to maintain humility concerning UR it that we are in the second 'kingdom of heaven' now, and do not yet see what the third will look like.
Have to get some symbols right:
Leaven is teaching; not sin. In the shadow of the Passover, they got rid of leaven BEFORE the Passover. One does not get rid of sin before the cross. They were getting rid of the old teaching in preparation for the new teaching.
The kingdom is like leaven... teaching. Elohim means 'God אל separated from man ים by ignorance ה. Israel means 'man יש joined to God אל by revelation ר. 'Marriage' in Hebrew also means 'doctrine'. 'Saved' means 'the flesh that loves the increase of the word. Jerusalem means 'teaching of peace." The New Jerusalem is the New Teaching of peace". Jesus said, "You have heard it said... but I say..."; he ushered in the New Jerusalem. The kingdom is at hand and within you.
Jesus said the kingdom had been given to the Jews; the Old teaching. It would be taken away and given to the Gentiles. We are in that second kingdom. Then some would be cut off and it returned to the Jews. This would be the next kingdom. The teaching was a Hebrew teaching. They could not teach because it had been hidden in mystery from the beginning. Then it became a Greek teaching. Hellenism was foisted on us by Nicloaitans who lost their first love, and taught Balaamisms and the doctrines of the Judaisers. In the third kingdom, the Hellenisms will be removed, and we will see Jesus in all the scripture as they did on the road to Emmaus.
We are starting to see the third kingdom now. The "synoptic" problem has disappeared with an understanding of Paul's mystery. We can now see how the NT authors used the OT scripture appropriately and can see Jesus in all the scriptures, as he said. The Overton window is opening to change the dialog from "The Bible is literal-historical" to "The scripture is prophetic riddle hidden in the literal-historical."
When the new paradigm is more fully embraced, many of the discussions based in Greek philosophy, myth and debate will go away. Until then it is prudent to remain intellectually humble.
