I can see parts of the Bible, the part that states God as speaking directly. Generally through prophets. Jewish recognized Prophets.
What of the rest? There's songs, pomes, general advice, Hebrew law, linage, stories etc...
Does anyone, other than Protestants see the entire Bible as God's Word, God's laws, basically if going against any part of as acting against the will of God, a sin.
Must every word of the Bible be understood via discernment as being direct instruction from God? Or are their parts of the Bible from a less divine source? Stories, advice, civil laws created by men.
Were the disciples of Jesus, disciples or prophets of God. The gospel, the "good news" written by followers of Jesus, need this also be accepted as the Word(s) of God?To act against the words of a disciple is acting against the will of God? Or is it perhaps not heeding, going against advice given by a church leader?
