The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land, and ugly and painful sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped his image.

I don't suggest anything. Notice that it was Scripture that answered you, not me. Scripture defines Scripture. The answers are there.
Your question: "Are you suggesting that I should never talk about what God means unless I have a verbatim quote from the Bible to back up what I say?"
Scripture's answer: Deut.4 (as already given)
And
Rev.22
With those two strong admonitions (and there are others), any man should easily understand the seriousness of God's word, and the seriousness of misrepresenting it.
With that said, I will attempt to show you what the scripture demonstrates that is allowed: Pss.17[2] ..... the things that are equal.
What things "are equal?"
Matthew 5 [28] states that to look on a woman with lust is adultery. So lust = adultery.
1John.3 states:
Col.3[5] states that covetousness is idolatry. So covetousness = idolatry.
Beyond the license of "equal" the scripture states explicitly the care that MUST be taken when using the scriptures. See the above warnings, and search out the many others. This is not a joke. Salvation depends on it. And if others are misled to their destruction by publication of false doctrine, who is responsible? Jesus answers that in his word also. GREAT CARE is to be taken. I hope this helps.
Why are you saying I added anything? Go take a nap or something. We're not in court.
If it's any consolation, no, I don't want to lean on my own understanding in anything. And that's why I won't judge your soul based on one internet conversation. Good night. And blocked.
Judge no one's soul. The scripture beat you to that.
