Alas, another of my failed attempts at concise wit.
But, I have no doubt there are some things we have misunderstood. In humble boldness, I'm quite certain this isn't one of the things we've misunderstood, but if God tells me otherwise after I die, I'm not going to argue with Him. I don't think I've opened any doors by making such statements.
Personally, I didn't find your 'attempt' to be less than concise, although I admit the 'wit' part escaped me.
Yes, we all 'misunderstand' some things that God has revealed due to the fact that we still possess a remnant of that sin nature that clouds our understanding, perception, desires and affections and our strength to do those things we know are right but don't. It has been said that John Calvin claimed he only had 85% correct. So, if Calvin was only 85% right, where does that leave us?
And lastly, you can be sure that "after you die" you will offer no argument, for you will then possess all that you should know perfectly and embrace it most willingly and with great joy. Doubtless, there is going to be even more that we will learn... throughout eternity, and that's no less exciting.
PS. I, nor most most here, entertain any such idea that God speaks audibly nor in any other manner directly to individuals. The Spirit does give 'promptings' and guides all those in whom He dwells, but all that is to be known about God in regard to faith and practice is to be found ONLY in the inspired, written Word; the Bible. I like the old adage: "God doesn't send postcards or make house calls."
