please, one other thing in reply:

Since your argument seems designed to disavow the spiritual effects of the scripture

Often, too often GM, our own efforts can become the antithesis of our best crusades. 

Later you claim that I “accuse God…”   Not true.  You are the one leaning against the cornerstone.  & I suppose it’s good that you are…cuz if you weren’t somebody’d come by and tag it with graffiti no doubt.  Personally I’d rather you’re there with your aims and making some headway, sir, because I believe your heart’s in the right place…& you certainly are doing your homework.  It’s just that your curriculum may still be in a three lock box…and you only have perhaps…one lock off so far.  & I know that may sound like a criticism…but it’s not:  It’s a nod…from one humble soul to another. 

Some people still think Jesus was talking to everyone, not at everyone.

We gota live (aspire) until we die…and meet with the answer.
