But if that were true that would mean God has different laws for different people and that would mean the bible is NOT our sole rule of faith, but that our faith can be arbitrary and be different from person to person

God does not force anyone to do anything. But we must have personal integrity. Personal convictions = knowing to do right, and doing the right thing anyway. We use to hear a lot about this even from people of the world. That is a man of integrity, or you can always count on that man keeping his word.
Sadly this is not true as much anymore in the world or the church.
