“LOL Way to twist what I’ve said. Of course you know I’ve never said I was infallible. What I said was I know whom I am listening to. HE is the one who is infallible.”
Then admit that you might have got it wrong and stop using the mantle of the Holy Spirit to in insist you can’t have a wrong interpretation of scripture.
Thank you for responding. Perhaps I will give it another try. I liked the concept.
Because we all know what happens when someone bends over around gay rights activists.
Once more, you haven't paid attention to what I've said. I'm not listening to myself as you do. I'm listening to the Holy Spirit and He is never wrong.
Since you readily admit you may be wrong and can't be sure of anything, then I have no idea why you are arguing with me. Except, perhaps, it bothers you when others have a confidence in the guidance of the Holy Spirit that you do not have.
What does that mean exactly? You certainly don't seem confident that the Holy Spirit is guiding you.
But I won’t demand others worship God through me
:::rolls eyes::: What a non-sequiter. I claim the Holy Spirit is infallible, and that I know I've been listening to Him, and you make this type of wild claim.
My goodness, it really IS bothering you that someone is confident in the guidance of the Spirit and you are not.

I’ve already answered that question by offering you a free read of my book I MET GOD and you answered that you weren’t interested in reading it. So stop pretending that you have any interest in anything other than patting yourself on the back and claiming personal omniscience.
“My goodness, it really IS bothering you that someone is confident in the guidance of the Spirit and you are not.”
There’s a difference between confidence and hubris — and the difference is self honesty.
So I have to read a whole book to know what you've already shown in your posts to me - you are not confident that you know when the Holy Spirit is leading you. Right.

And to you 'self-honesty' is being unsure as you are. Got it.
