It seems to me that the word "twist" implies intent because it carries the connotation of action, of doing something to the Scriptures to make it fit some other notion than what it was intended to mean. If you reframe your statement to use the word "misunderstand" rather than "twist," then perhaps it would be closer to your intended meaning. However, there still would remain a problem because the promise of Jesus Christ is that he would not leave us in the state of being subject to deception, but rather, we are promised that the Holy Spirit would guide us into all truth.
