Now, to answer your question AGAIN: "If any man think himself spiritual, or a prophet, let him acknowledge that the things I WRITE UNTO YOU ARE THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE LORD."
When Paul was stating his personal preferences he stated so [e.g., I Cor.], but this topic he ties to the creation order in Eden....which is all encompassing.
I Tim. 2 was explicitly written to address "how to behave yourself in the household of God, which is the church."

So pointing out someone uses ad homs in a debate,which others there said you did, is slander? Seriously. You do and honestly it's not that big a deal except that if you do it in a more public place in a debate between Trinitarians and OPs and you are representing OPs, it makes us look weak by resorting to Ad homs...if you do then just a suggestion you not do it. Here it might mean less.
Anyways, you are quoting a verse from an entirely different context.
The verse you quoted but did not reference, is from 1Cor and clearly Paul writes things that are commandments of the Lord
However Paul informs us that not everything he writes is a commandment of the Lord
1Co 7:12
But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
And so we have Paul saying "I do not permit" not "The Lord does not permit"...sounds like a personal preference.
