You have no way of determining whether what you think is your god is just you imagining it all or not. And your understanding of scripture that you imagine was given to by a god is very different to everyone else's understanding of scripture who also imagine that they are being guided by their god. This is because you lack critical thinking skills to realise this and consequently are a classic of example of the Dunning Kruger effect.
I have critical thinking, but do not need to us it where God is concerned I trust Him totally. Tell me where my knowledge of salvation differs from others here or anywhere else. As Jesus said, His people will know when He speaks to them. I'm not here to pretend about God, that would be stupid and not using critical thinking.

Actually, I make it a point not to discuss your scriptures with you, or anyone. I may bring up the odd reference here and there for various reasons, but to me it's like a discussion about Game of Thrones; uninteresting and pointless. The book is so bloated, so haphazardly compiled, any bit one cares to cite will always be negated by a different bit that says the opposite. Like matter and antimatter, that cancels out the whole thing for me. Hitting me over the head with the book can't knock me out faster than simply pulling out the least verse from it.
So basically, I'm pointing out that you're not likely to have scored a victory over me in that game, because I refuse to play it. That's all.
If you're not interested in the Bible at all then how can you make such incorrect assumptions about it, and how is it you can believe that is contradicts itself when you don't care. Please show me a contradiction.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
