No Jacob, it does not make sense to me, but with respect, I understand why it makes sense to you because I used to believe the same way that you do now. You stated that you believe the Bible is the Word of God. That means you are subject to a form of cognitive bias (as I once was)called confirmation bias. It means that you are prone to accept things that confirm your beliefs and dismiss things that do not. It’s common to all intelligent human beings, and even those who are not intelligent, statistically speaking....which is another way of saying that everyone is susceptible to it.
Just because someone says “Thus saith the Lord” does not mean that God actually said that. It means that someone said God said that. History is replete with people claiming that God told them something and it was demonstrably false. This goes back deep in human culture and the experience of our ancestors who came before us. They had trible shaman who would get in touch with “God” or the gods as they believed them, and they made the people think they were right.
Therefore, any claim of God saying this or that, should be taken with great skepticism and examined very closely. For if not, one may guilty of the great fault of claiming to know something about God that they actually don’t know, but only believe.
