This presupposes that autonomous man can in and of himself elevate
himself to a regenerated level of enlightenment. In the elemental
aspect of the faith, heresy could be thought of as revealing an
incorrect or non-efficacious faith. "Faith without works is dead."
Works could be thought of as also involving a correct outgrowth in the
essential orthodox precepts.

"reason" never saved anyone. "Reason" only leads to intellectual, not
spiritual understanding. "Reason" is nothing more than fallen man
predicating all on his own adjudicatory power. Only via the Spirit can
fallen man transpectivally adjudicate the criterion as God defines it.
Man must permit himself to be interpreted by God, not his own
autonomous "reasoning".

And this he cannot do unless the Father first calls him and the Spirit

Jesus Christ.

They are only doing what they are capable of. They are only thinking
according to the adopted second nature.

A large number of Christians hold to the theory that the Song of
Solomon was written as a parable of Christ and the church, however I
and many others consider the Song of Solomon to have been written as a
romantic poem about two quite human young lovers.

But, I think it OK for a Christian to use it as a parable. I do not.
