You are being foolish.
Believing God's Word is to acknowledge Him as God, not another.

Maybe I have been wrong about you. Based on your response to my very simple explanation, surely it is your ability to comprehend that is lacking. Sorry if I have caused you stress.

You've insulted me several times. You've called me a trouble-maker, you've accused me of baiting you, you've said I am foolish, and now you say my ability to comprehend is lacking, all because I believe Paul misspoke once in a while. What did Jesus say about insulting people?
Yes, all because you believe Paul---speaking by the Holy Spirit sent by Jesus, just as He promised--misspoke.
And now that you understand and admit what you have done against my warning--I need not say anything more, but leave the matter in God's hands. Oh, if you had only listened!

Well what you say seems to contradict (as you love to write in a very cryptic way):
2 Timothy 3:16-17
King James Version
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
So you either diosagree with Paul when you say the bible is mere elementary. He didn't speak cryptically like you. He came out and said the bible is what we need to be mature. You say different.

Sorry Bob, but all you want to do is pick and choose what you want to believe. You have created your own bible.
How do you know what God has said? Do you receive special messages direct from heaven? Do you accept the quotes found in Scripture? How do you accept them as accurate and worhty of obedience when you reject from teh same authors that teach without direct quoting God?

More comprehension errors:
I have not been having a discussion of agreement or disagreement with you, but "correcting", "teaching" and "warning" you.

That is not true. I believe we should obey everything God and Jesus told us to do - they are quoted many times in the Bible.

You called me a trouble-maker and accused me of baiting you. Notice how I have treated you respectfully throughout.
Your skill and cunning in an attempt to circle back to an unbiblical explanation multiple times, is not you being "respectful." At best, it shows you to be what God describes as "stiffnecked" or "stubborn."
None of which covers up the fact that Jesus sent Paul, the Holy Spirit Spoke through Paul, all scripture is inspired by God--and you reject it in part against the Word.

Let's sum this up:
Paul said women can't speak when they are in a church. I said I think Paul misspoke. You said I was a trouble-maker. Did I leave anything important out?

I would suggest that when someone disagrees with you, you resist the urge to call them a trouble-maker.
No - Those who speak against God and His Word, are indeed "troublemakers"--against God.

Speak against God? When I was a young man, I did say something awful to God, but I've apologized and I think he's forgiven me.
Speak against his Word? Over and over again on this website I've said we need to obey the things God and Jesus are quoted as saying in the Bible.
And I am still treating you respectfully.
