Maybe you look into Who was picking up sticks and why. If you can find the reason for someone to do this then. You will see the difference between 'picking up sticks' and Healing someone.
And Again, if The Father did not side with the Son here Christ would not have been able to do this mirical.
I always get confused because church is on Sunday. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabbath#Sev...ay_Sabbath
I'm not saying that god did not side with Jesus, just that god let Jesus do something that constituted as work. Now, if god wants to reinterpret his rules to include the intent of the work, then I guess he can do that...I think.

God can absolutly NOT Go against His nature. That is Why I always say the Omni aspects of God is a toxic doctrine.

The rules are in and of themselves god's nature? God is not truly omnipotent?

Also, is his inability to go against his nature why he needed Jesus? (honest question) Because Jesus preaches love and forgiveness, whereas Yahweh constantly incites violence against people he doesn't like.

Once again ... "consistency with the scriptures" is solely up to the person interpreting them.
A million other christians will call you a blasphemer, a radical or a heretic; selling you down the river for your approval and/or disapproval of their own ideas about what is inspired and what is not. The whole book is just so damn useless.

Exactly. Dirch himself has said that no surviving bible is 100% accurate, and that nor is any interpretation.
