1. The Bible is the inerrant Word of God

2. The Old Testament doesn’t apply anymore, except for some parts like the ones condemning homosexuals or calling for a death penalty.

3. Only the New Testament applies, except for the parts we ignore, like when Jesus forbids remarriage, because Brother Rush and Brother Newt with their third wives are godly men. Also the part when Jesus said set aside all your possessions before following him is communistic. We’ll determine which ones don’t apply anymore and get back to you.

4. Some parts of the Bible are to interpreted literally, like when the Earth was created in six days, or all human beings are traced back to just two individuals, and other parts are metaphor, like when the Bible says the heaven is a solid dome over the Earth. You just shut up and tithe, we’ll decide.

5. When parts of the Bible contradict science, or other parts of the Bible, or would be illegal to carry out like killing witches, they are definitely a metaphor for something. We’ll get back to you on those.

6. The entire Bible is divinely inspired by God, however. That’s the important thing to take away.
 
So who is exactly wrong here? God or those who choose to ignore His word?
 
Both. There is no solid dome in the sky, and we shouldn't kill people for choosing wrong about who they sleep with. But if Jesus says that remarriage after divorce is forbidden, we shouldn't accept someone as godly who has been remarried after divorce two or even three times.
 
It's Islam that teaches to kill homosexuals - Jesus said "go and sin no more". The answer to the 2nd part is "no, it is not Godly to go against God's word".
