uncovering the lies and misunderstanding: God has given me the spirit of discernment and allowed me to see certain false hoods that are being preached. but I am not exempt. I to once had accepted and most likely regurgitated. what i am about to bring forth. Here is another scripture that is incorrectly used to boaster certain doctrines. specifically, Deuteronomy 7:6 many think this verse is saying that God is putting the Israelites above all people. the word above is a bad usage of words for this verse used by the king James translation. When you look closely at this verse it Is saying "out of all the nations on the face of the earth I picked you". the Hebrew word(mikkol) is used for above. this is why you must study every scripture before you consume it. the word kol means; all or whole. It has a mem prefix added to it meaning out or from. here are other translations that translate it more properly or at least more clearly:
כִּ֣י עַ֤ם קָדֹושׁ֙ אַתָּ֔ה לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ בְּךָ֞ בָּחַ֣ר ׀ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ לִהְיֹ֥ות לֹו֙ לְעַ֣ם סְגֻלָּ֔ה מִכֹּל֙ (mikkol) הָֽעַמִּ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הָאֲדָמָֽה׃
