So you are opposed to God and to Scripture, understanding neither.The point of imagining you are Abram is to realize that if Abram had behaved like many modern Christians then he would have rejected the voice of God because it disagreed with the prevailing religious texts of his culture. When you make a religious text the standard of orthodoxy then you exclude insights that God might give to extend the theology in the future.
BTW, the saving grace for the Bible as a standard of orthodoxy is the Bible's ambiguity and incompleteness. If the Bible was truly unambiguous and comprehensive then Christianity would never change, but obviously Christianity has been changing over the centuries and will continue to change.
The beliefs(in your posts) you have must be rejected in order to come to Christ Jesus - they are not compatible, and cannot be "cleaned up" as if to be kept or retained in any way.
