Sure enough, though I think that is mostly old testament before Jesus came along. But even Jesus would get a civility warning (it can be uncivil to quote him), and of course he would be told to take his anti-psychotics (son of god - sheesh).

Show me one instance in the Bible where God is not civil.

Oh, perhaps I should have been clearer. I meant by babble standards of civility.

the quote from 1 Jn. 3: 23 (where you were asked to rephrase) was the one I meant.
