And how do you know that it's the word of God?

Is it because "a lot of people around me currently think" it is? Or is it because its contents are so good that only a God could have written it?
I mean, who else could write a verse like Leviticus 20:14?
And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you. Leviticus 20:14
Douglas Wilson (@douglaswils) is the pastor of a Christ Church (@Christ_Kirk) in Moscow, Idaho. Since I live in that town, his views are important to me. He also has a wide following among Evangelical Christians in the United States and throughout the world. He believes that the laws of the Bible should be applied today, including those that require the execution of homosexuals, disobedient children, witches, and whoever refuses to obey biblical law. He also believes in slavery and has written books in its defense.
But he and his church don't talk about these things much anymore. So I thought I'd post some twitter conversations that I've had lately with Pastor Wilson and his followers.
@Christ_Kirk has blocked me from commenting on their tweets. So I'm posting it here.

Be sure to follow the link, which advocates the execution of homosexuals and disobedient children. @douglaswils has never denied believing these things. He just doesn't talk about it anymore.

You are also on record saying this (out loud):
"The reason why many Christians will be tempted to dismiss the arguments presented in this booklet is that we will say (out loud) that a godly man could have been a slave owner." p.11, Southern Slavery, As It Was
