Finally, after sifting through pages of arguments that I certainly can't comprehend, there is this little gem. Maybe, just maybe the bible-ists will at least try to and possibly admit that they understand that this is what we mean when we "REJECT" portions of the bible, a thing they find to be either blasphemous, or demonic or something like that. Book worship . . . that's all we have going on here.

It is God inspired regardless of your feelings. You post about the Holy Spirit speaking to you but ignore Him as He speaks thru His Word. Isn’t it blasphemous to reject the Word, the Holy Spirit?

The Bible is the Holy Spirit? Is that anything like, the Bible is Jesus?

I know the question was not addressed to me, but yes, it's the same concept.

HOWEVER, let's discuss the idea of stoning offenders to death since that IS given as a command from God.

How many were stoned?...

No, there is no rejection.

They are attributed to him only in your mind, and the pages of Tentmaker.Com which seems to be your 'word of god'.

Yes. Nothing wrong with God inspiring them to write about their true feelings at the time. It is a description of the human mind.

The post said that the Holy Spirit speaks thru the Scriptures. Either your comprehension skills are abysmal or you lie to mock. There is not a third option

Interesting observation about mockers and their made up beliefs
