There is something we do in trying to explain these terms of how we view reality as if we are teaching ourselves through the teacher. Now i do not doubt that this is from a weak perspective of the importance of being without a specific application of truth to us without first applying ourselves to the general evangelical entire counsel application. There are these temptations to be under the allusion of being in a frame of understanding from this sensitivity in a legal sense in receiving a teaching to hear the voices that do not have their origins from grace. In a sense we are dumb sheep and we follow after some kind of frame of reference in which we have very little perspective , having been used to these short focuses in receiving the teaching under these different frames in our disposition.
This is not really the historical fashion of what is defined as being under the obligation to receive the teaching in a whole counsel fashion. If we just accept that the whole counsel is all that God requires, then i do not think under further observation of the historical teaching of the whole counsel that we have read from our fathers as if we have the whole understanding of what they were saying. It is the fashion to receive the word with much rejoicing because in the frame of receiving the word we are receiving it as having the nature of what the teaching is defining so that we are receiving it as if it was gifted to us by His grace. That is, there is a difference between receiving a teaching under the obligation of a legal spirit or nature, and receiving it under the nature of the spirit of grace. So that it would include this divine illumination or having a taste in a complete way of the eternal and invisible understanding of the wholeness of the teaching so that we are receiving it not in the letter but in the Spirit, written on our hearts as if it were with the full understanding as if it was related to the whole of scripture. Its more than just an application but it is a divine light to our understanding in a spiritual wholeness.

Whole counsel understanding
