1. I don't treat every unfavorable comment as a prohibition.
Do you see the word 'forbidden' as meaning prohibited?
3. I treat advice in letters to individuals or individual
institutions, about their specific situations, differently from the
way I treat other writings.
So now it is individuals *and* institutions? That about covers it!
What is left?
Does this mean that you treat the Iqan and the Seven Valleys
differently from the Aqdas and the Hidden Words?
4. I don't presume that all the words are being used the same way they
are commonly used in everyday conversation, or in legal circles, or in
religious circles, or in any other part of society. When questions
arise about meanings of key words, I search through the words of God,
to see how He uses them.
You might also look at how the words are used in original languages.
