You glibbly misuse this scripture while, at the same time,  consistently ignoring the problem that "infallible understanding" brings into the discussion.   You Judy, believe that both the bible  and your reading of the text are inspired  -   they cannot be wrong.   The problem with this assertion is manifold:   it does not allow for change of opinion on a given scripture because there is no opinion on scripture;  it places your understanding above all others  (Miller, deegan, Linda Shileds and even Barth) when there is a disagreement of meaning or terms;  it provides no reason for reconsidering a scripture;  and it actually renders verbal/ plenary inspiration of the text (something you believe) as unnecessary in view of the fact that God pro vides not only the words but your understanding of the text;  it ignores the fact that there was no bible when Paul wrote I Co  --  only Jewish scripture and the church did not have ready access to most of those document copies.

And I will simply say once more that the Word of God needs no "INTERPRETATION" and that this is the crux of
the problem.  Scripture can only be spiritually discerned. (1 Cor 2:14) so all of your theological "interpreters"
will in the last day prove to have been false prophets/teachers.

There most assuredly is. David Miller, Bill Taylor and John Smithson however, have demonstrated on numerous occasions, that it is NOT ALWAYS YOURS! To ward off yet another charge of blasphemy by David, I'll simply say that ALL INTERPRETATIONS OF SCRIPTURE ARE NEITHER EXHAUSTIVE NOR INFALLIBLE. That then, would include your interpretation(s) of Scripture would it not?

Meaning that everyone has their own Jesus and there is no standard of Truth?

The definitive answer to your query concerning 'your own Jesus' is...well...YES.
