I don't believe I made that claim. I believe it is the inspired words of God. There are literal words of God in the Bible and since Jesus spoke in parables then not everything God says is factual.
I am non-smoking and non-drinking but arteriosclerosis runs in my family; got my dad and a brother but I survived it and a grandfather survived as well until pancreatic cancer took him because he consumed too much saccharine.
Both are the word of God and I am not sure what one means by true faith. Both entail faith in God. There are apparent contradictions but that is due to a lack of understanding of what God is saying in both communities.
