in the New Testament (Eph 6:14-17, 1 Thes 5:8).  Obviously the breastplate of
               righteousness (Eph 6:14) also involves faith and love which are both the cause and
               result of righteousness (1 Thes 5:8).  Faith is both a precursor gift of God, corollary
               (Rom 10:8, 1 Cor 12:9, Eph 4:5) and fruit (Gal 5:22) of righteousness and love is
               both a fruit (Gal 5:22) and corollary (John 14:21, Rev 2:4) of righteousness.


               Exegesis and Hermeneutics


               Biblical exegesis and hermeneutics are errors both representing private
               interpretation and tradition (Mat 15:6, Mark 7:7-13, Col 2:8-9, 2 Pet 1:20).
               Hermeneutics and exegesis are both sins under the Law as together they result in
               interpretations of the the Word not by the Word or the Holy Ghost, that gives a
               proper interpretation (Isaiah 28:9-10, John 1:9), but rather by reference to what the
               meaning is for the 'here and now' i.e by reference to Man's tradition and culture
               (Mat 15:6, Mark 7:7-13, Col 2:9, 2 Pet 1:20). Only the Word which is God (John
               1:1), Christ (John 1:14) and the Holy Ghost (Mat 28:19) can interpret the Word. It
               must interpret itself and we then chose to appropriate that interpretation (John
               14:26, 1 Cor 2:13-16). References to ‘the Greek meaning of this word’ or ‘the
               Hebrew meaning of this word’ other than to the word or words that already appear
               translated in the text of the Word, is also an error (Gen 11:6-7, Psalm 19:3, Prov
               30:5-6, Acts 2:6, 8, 2 Tim 3:16, Rev 22:18-19).  Private interpretation, that is other
               than by the Holy Ghost (1 Cor 2:11-13), of the scripture and tradition that disobeys
               the Word are both a sin under the Law (Mat 15:6, Jam 2:10, Rev 22:18-19).  Any
               tradition of Christians, that is compatible with the two Great commandments, is not
               sinful even though it may not accord with the Law (Rom 10:4).  The Word is fully
               the Law (Deut 29:21, Rev 22:18-19) and fully the means to escape from the Law
               (Jer 7:21-23, John 1:1, 14, Rom 10:4).

               Sin


               All thought, word and deed that falls under the definition of a sin as described
               anywhere in the Word, is a sin under the Law (Deut 29:21, Luke 16:17, Rom 4:15,
               Jam 2:10).  Only sins against the two great commandments are sins for Christians
               (Duet 28:58, 61, 29:21, Mat 22:37-40, Rom 10:4, Gal 5:18-21, Eph 5:3-6), so, for
               example, if a specific instance of any of these condemned acts: having a mortgage
               (Rom 13:8), fornication (Acts 15:20, 29, 21:25, 1 Cor 6:18-19), adultery (Rom
               2:22), divorce and/or remarriage (Mat 19:6, Mark 10:9, Luke 16:18), genocide (Ex
               20:13), not committing genocide and genocide (Deut 7:1-2, 13:15), ethnic
               cleansing (Ex 20:13, Luke 10:27, 33, 36-37), not committing ethnic cleansing (Ex
               23:31-33, Deut 7:1-2), women speaking in the churches or being spiritual leaders
