Are the scriptures I have cited not in the bible you rely upon? If not, which ones? If so, are there any I have mishandled, misrepresented?

Are there any instances where you see that there might be questions about how you have dealt with or interpreted or applied certain verses?

For example, you quote:Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

How do you know that that refers to the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament? "The Word of God" does not necessarily or clearly denote only the Scriptures.

Similarly, while I'd entertain an argument that the quote from Psalm 119 refers to the Torah, I don't see that it indisputably refers to the Tanakh, much less to the NT.

I don't want to say, "You have mishandled this or that," but I can say that I think the conclusions you draw from the verses you cite are not proved by the verses.

I asked some questions, will you answer them?

I did not say nor even infer anything in your questions.

If you can’t or won’t, just say so.

Are you ignoring me? Will you answer the questions?
