Can you quote me saying anything remotely like this. The peace of God does not come by the scriptures or parroting that you believe them so whether they(the scriptures) are fuzzy stuffy lovey or not would, not make an ounce of difference I have never met a bible fundamentalist yet that has the peace of God.
How do you know which parts are inspired or not? The parts that just give you warm fuzzy feelings?
Could you share what the feeling of inspiration is like for you ?. I know when I see something inspiring such as a beautiful sunset there is a definite feel good factor.

Numbers 22:1 "Then the people of Israel set out and camped in the plains of Moab beyond the Jordan at Jericho."
Considering you believe everything written is inspiring, How does this bible verse inspire you ?

No I have never come close to saying that for you to even think that , in fact I have never said peace comes by the scriptures, it comes by knowing. You made this argument up, for you know perfectly well that you "think" I do not believe the scriptures.
Only the one who comes from God has seen the Father.
Peace dwells in the kingdom of heaven and the joy of God dwells in Zion.
Now, don't start quoting bible verses at me without expounding on them. The devil is good at quoting them too .
Peace is within, if it's not you are moved by everything that happens outside of you.

Guess you hadn't heard; John 8:44
"You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your father's will. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies".
The devil hates God's word, the truth, and will not use it. It is not in him.
" Whoever rejects me and does not accept my word, he already has his judge, namely the words I've spoken that's what will condemn him on the last day. "

But he still knows how to quote the bible. Jesus called those bible quoting pharisees children of hell. What you gotta say about that?.
