None of this is Scriptural

According to James Dobson, Vic Eliason, and others who do know the Bible, it is scriptural. Who do we believe, experts who have spent their lives studying the Bible or the detractors who probably haven't picked up a Bible in years?

There are EXPERTS and then there are 'experts'.....


Get taught by GOD.
 

Isaiah 29
 
 1.  Woe to you, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David settled! Add year to year and let your cycle of festivals go on.
 2.  Yet I will besiege Ariel; she will mourn and lament, she will be to me like an altar hearth.
 3.  I will encamp against you all around; I will encircle you with towers and set up my siege works against you.
 4.  Brought low, you will speak from the ground; your speech will mumble out of the dust. Your voice will come ghostlike from the earth; out of the dust your speech will whisper.
 5.  But your many enemies will become like fine dust, the ruthless hordes like blown chaff. Suddenly, in an instant,
 6.  the LORD Almighty will come with thunder and earthquake and great noise, with windstorm and tempest and flames of a devouring fire.
 7.  Then the hordes of all the nations that fight against Ariel, that attack her and her fortress and besiege her, will be as it is with a dream, with a vision in the night--
 8.  as when a hungry man dreams that he is eating, but he awakens, and his hunger remains; as when a thirsty man dreams that he is drinking, but he awakens faint, with his thirst unquenched. So will it be with the hordes of all the nations that fight against Mount Zion.
 9.  Be stunned and amazed, blind yourselves and be sightless; be drunk, but not from wine, stagger, but not from beer.
 10.  The LORD has brought over you a deep sleep: He has sealed your eyes (the prophets); he has covered your heads (the seers).
 11.  For you this whole vision is nothing but words sealed in a scroll. And if you give the scroll to someone who can read, and say to him, "Read this, please," he will answer, "I can't; it is sealed."
 12.  Or if you give the scroll to someone who cannot read, and say, "Read this, please," he will answer, "I don't know how to read."
 13.  The Lord says: "These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men.
 14.  Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder; the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish."
 

 
Isaiah 54:12-13
     All your sons will be taught by the LORD, and great will be your children's peace.
 
Matthew 15:7-9
 7.  You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
 8.  "`These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
 9.  They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.' "
 
John 6:45
  It is written in the Prophets: `They will all be taught by God.'  Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me.
