I do not eat pork or shellfish or wear mixed weave clothing , I follow the law as best I am able and rely on grace for salvation.
so I walk the walk as well as talk the talk.

So you're saying that you have an open line to God himself/herself/itself? You say that you will not listen to a preachers opinion and that the only opinion that matters is the world of God. The Bible was written by man. The Vatican who writes Church law (and who routinely change it to suit) is written by man. Dogmatic law is actually written by man. I'm interested to know how you manage to communicate with God and bypass humans when it comes to listening to religious opinion?

sorry but the original greek and hebrew and aramaic manuscripts were not writen by or ordered by the catholic Church and do , in fact greatly pre-date it .
Man did not write the Word of God , God dictated it through the apostles , and various prophets.
I speak to God everyday ,He answers through the happenings of the world , it isnt always what I want to hear but he does answer .
A preachers opinion or teaching are easy to spot as valid or not in whether they agree with the Word of God or not .
if they do not then they are meaningless , if they do ,he was inspired by the Creator, it is all very simple.
