You still choose who to listen to and how to interpret it. You really are in the same boat as everyone else, except you don't want to do the hard work it takes to actually sort these things out.
This is what you are saying, and I agree. We are both fallible. As far as the hard work, you are saying it. If you are fallible, then by what authority can you tell me that? Maybe I am lazy, but why should I assume based on your claim? If you are right, then no problem. My inefficiency isn't an excuse for another fallible human.
God is the answer, Not I.
2 Peter 1:8-11 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Could I ask... what your deal is? You come onto atheist forums acting like the Bible doesn't promote slavery, like wtf dude.
If you can show Jesus rose from the dead, there's no goddamn need to dance around this other stuff. God endorses slavery, but so what atheists, I proved Jesus rose from the dead so checkmate! All you do by denying the obvious is make yourself look like a fucking asshole.
Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
