What is your short story or one sentence, Why Do You love God?

Did Russell ever claim to be inspired? If he did, do you have a reference?

I trust the people that showed love to me and directed me to the Bible as the source of direction. Jesus, the Apostles words and the entire Bible give me the direction I am looking for. Thank you, I always check the things I believe with what Jesus says and the Apostles.

Nobody else ever told me I can just quote Jesus and understand what I should believe. If Jesus doesn't talk about it, quote the Apostle's words.

And that has to do with my question, how?

Sorry I misunderstood what you were asking.

I agree with Ajax the instructions in the Bible, are in conflict with each other, they do not agree at all.

Still even though they don't agree, each scripture is an instruction that is beneficial for us. Each scripture must be important somehow or it wouldn't be written down. Does anyone agree?

Context is everything with scripture, it is misleading to compare statements from various chapters and verses without taking into consideration the context to which the statements are made. What may appear to be contradictory may not be when context is taken into consideration. God loves and hates depending on the circumstances of an act, as we do, check the context.

I appreciate your comment about source of direction. Before I studied the Bible in earnest I was confused and had no real guidelines to my life even though I went to church and looked into religion. Now thanks to the Almighty God, I do have guidelines. I am thankful and happy for that.
