Theology
the study of the nature of God and religious belief.
religious beliefs and theory when systematically developed.

Wesleyan Quadrilateral
a termed coined by American Methodist Albert Outler, is a reflection of what John Wesley viewed as the structural elements that inform theology. Those elements, as listed in their order of priority as understood by Wesley, are

scripture
tradition
Christian experience, and
reason

Change the priority and make an addition?

reason and conscience

tradition
Christian experience

Judeo-Christian Theology

Judeo theology is about a rescuer [from Flood and from Egypt], not so much a comforter.
Comfort is found in the Psalms, but the Psalms are partly derivative from Egyptian culture contemporary to Saul/Labaya, David, and Solomon–the 18th through the 22nd dynasties of Egypt.

How did that turn out?
What verses give us the words of Noah comforting anyone?

You say he called his name Noah. Who called his name Noah? You did not capitalize he as And He called his name Noah.

You say the Jewish Psalms borrow from Ugaritic culture.

Know what originates vs what is borrowed.

Judeo-Christian Theology

= = = =
A viable Judeo-Christian theology cannot have a flawed notion of a global god.

Jesus’ theology is tied to a flawed notion of a global Father God.
A viable Judeo-Christian theology cannot be flawed
and the prophets representing this theology cannot advance/preach a flawed notion of a global God.
A viable theology should not be ethnocentric or local.

The following video points out a flaw in current Judeo-Christian Theology:

YouTube
Channel: The 5th Kind (872,000+ subscribers)
Video: ELYON – “The Commander of The Elohim” This Information is Key! Paul Wallis & Mauro Biglino Ep 2 (249,000+ views)

Yahweh is not Elyon.
Yahweh is not God.
Elyon is not God.

The God of 1,000 solar systems in the Milky Way and of billions of galaxies is Elyon?
You will have to make a successful case that the Elohim associated with the Middle East lord over, say 100 of billions of galaxies.
