People claim that all the words in the Bible are God's words! Is there any verse/verses in the Bible that backs up such a claim?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

2 Timothy 3.16: "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness".

Yet another example of the importance regular bible reading and of bible study, as these verses are basic Christian knowledge.
May I suggest you see if there is a discipleship course being run in your church that teaches basic Christianity.

Even the devil's words are trustworthy from God.
If God said the devil said such-and-such, he did say it. But that is not the same as a command to actually follow it. In Genesis God tells us that Cain killed his brother. That is God's truth, but it is not a command for us to kill our siblings.

Paul indicated that some of his words were his, not the commandment of the Lord. Peter wrote that Paul wrote according to the wisdom given to him.

God cannot be seen. At best we can hear Him. Anything done through human effort cannot be equated to God's ways.

I think we would do well to stick to the terms of Scripture. I'd rather not argue about this question.

Did Jesus claim to be God? Where in the Bible Jesus is indicated as God very clearly without any confusion?

I don't want to argue with you. But Scripture has divine authority and is self-authenticating.

If by "scripture" you mean the Bible, then obviously not, as I pointed out. But this issue is, what is scripture?
