I am merely quoting the same scriptures that she claimed are the accurate words of God.

I do not agree with Paul on many of his statements. However, I understand why he made them. Even Peter and Paul argued over the interpretation and application of Jesus’s teachings. The Bible has many contradictory scriptures and the only way to understand them is with the help of the Holy Spirit from a higher perspective.

Such hypocrisy to adhere to the Bible’s accuracy when you agree with it, and to refute it and to ask the moderator to remove it when you disagree with it. Are we no better than the liberals who rewrite history with their own thoughts and to censor all speech that disagrees?

If you disagree with Paul, then you disagree with God, because Paul wrote scripture. You need to take it upon with God, because HE is the one you disagree with, not Paul.

Prove it bro. Paul confronted Peter on his social associations. Hardly arguing about doctrinal issues. Other than that, show me in scripture, where they argued about doctrinal differences. On second thought, don’t bother. You won’t find any. By the way, you mentioned the application of Jesus’ teachings. Which Jesus are you referring to? The Jesus of Mormonism, or new age cults? Sorry bro. I am not buying what you are selling. As a free American, I have the privilege to disagree with you, and I surely do.

Wrong and ignorant. Peter and Paul NEVER argued over the interpretation and application of Jesus’s teachings, but instead, Peter and Paul - as apostles who could both speak and write as wholly inspired of God, which you are not and do not - were both given express revelation from God as to what the promised New Covenant entails regarding the Gentiles (Gal. 2:2; Acts 10) thus Paul reproved Peter for acting hypocritically in separating himself from Gentiles in company with Jews. The Bible has many contradictory scriptures and the only way to understand them is with the help of the Holy Spirit from a higher perspective.

Wrong again. Despite the ignorant charges of atheists, there are no doctrinally contradictory teachings in the Bible, but charges of which that are due to ignoring context, immediate or larger, covenantal distinctions, and other sound principles of interpretation, versus isolationist eisegesis. Thus they actually imagine “contradictions” such as listed by “American Atheists” and exposed as failing to prove what they allege.

and the only way to understand them is with the help of the Holy Spirit from a higher perspective.

Meaning by a believer willing to follow and obey the Truth of Scripture via sound principles of interpretation in prayerful dependence upon God, versus your unScriptural esoterical "enlightenment, including earth changes causing all the gender identity issues and high divorce rate. etc.
