I’ve told you already, no, I don’t. My example was that some translations of Matt. 19:9 use adultery for the Greek term porneia. That is a misunderstanding of the passage.
I disagree. What did Jesus say to Peter, when Peter answered Him, “I say you are the Christ, Son of the living God” ???

Cool, so you have the same view as me; not all translations we reliable.Alex337:

So you don’t understand that passage? Because if you do, and you are human, then your understanding is a human understanding.

I don’t think many people would disagree with that. It’s your conclusion that we cannot rely on Scripture, since some translations have faults that Christianity disagrees with you. And you even stated that St Paul himself was fallible when writing 1 Corinthians!
What did Jesus say to Peter?

Oh, you only rely on the Bible to inform your understanding? I thought you didn’t…Alex337:

It’s pretty simple, friend; if you understand it, and you’re human, then your understanding is human.
And if anything they passage only seems to encourage me to take my God given revelation over your words.

I’ll quote it for you, since it might make you melt just writing it down…
Matthew 16
And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven… "

Cool, I am indeed glad that God gave me a revelation
So, did you understand that passage? Are you human? Did you understand it with your human understanding?

Peter understood it, and it was not from his own reasoning, but from the Father.
And then a little later, Peter tried to prevent Jesus from doing God’s will. Jesus rebuked him for thinking as a man, and not as God thinks.

Understand what? That Jesus is the Son of God? And that Peter understood that by the revelation of the Father? Yes
