As the Gods have chosen not to communicate with me directly, I'm left to discover them via the only means describing their character: the Bible. If the Bible is in error, would the Gods give me a demerit for making a personal decision as the efficacy of some parts vs. others?That's like asking those who have eaten a dish you have heard about to come up with the recipe. Seek God, not His followers.I wouldn't say I'm complicating things. I reserve a right to ask questions and to examine the responses. In terms of knowing Gods, there are lots of people who will claim to know the Gods' will / intent and claim to be true arbiters of such knowledge.
