You drew a parallel between Job being "blameless" and Paul being "blameless". The difference between these two on that point is that *God* is calling Job blameless (twice) compared to Paul *referring to himself* as blameless. That is a big difference.
Are you saying you don't believe "All scripture is given by inspiration of God?"

No, I am not saying that, nor would I imply something so errant. What I did do was highlight a distinction in your comparison to the use of the word "blameless" in two different contexts. I see how you tied them together, but the difference in who delivers this description also seems significant. Can you acknowledge that Paul saying it about himself is different than God saying it about Job?

How can there be a difference if the whole bible is inspired? If Paul's words are not inspired, how can I believe any of his words? Is it up to me to pick which words are inspired and which ones are not?
