Colossians 3: 16-19
Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize. Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen, and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions. 19 He has lost connection with the Head...
Much like this hit song from Coldplay, you can over analyze bible principles and doctrine to the point where its like pulling puzzles apart.
Apparently during the Apostle Paul's day their were those who were dissecting and chasing theories that had little to do with walking daily in the Spirit. He said of those, that plunged into such matters, that they had lost connection with the head. The head is Christ, and the gospel; His death, burial, and resurrection.
Whatever your study; whether it be eschatology, cosmology, or mythology, don't let it pull you away from the simple message of the gospel that redeems you. Christ died for your sins; He was buried; and He rose again. Be a good scientist, but stay connected to the head
