Yes, in the Quran, Allah emphasizes the importance of accepting the entire revealed message and warns against picking and choosing verses. One clear example is in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:85):
**"Then, is it other than Allah they seek for judgment? And to who has been entrusted the [true] means of ruling and judgment for them? Yet they turn away from it; but they are not with the believers."**
More specifically, the Quran addresses the issue of selectively accepting parts of the scripture and rejecting others, which is considered a form of disbelief. For instance, in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:85), Allah criticizes those who believe in some parts of the scripture and reject others:
**"Then, after that, are they to believe in a part of the Scripture and disbelieve in the rest? Indeed, what is the recompense of those who do that among you except disgrace in the worldly life; and on the Day of Resurrection they will be sent back to the most severe punishment."**
This indicates that believers are expected to accept the entire message of the Quran and previous scriptures, not to pick and choose parts that suit them. Faith in Islam requires believing in all of Allah’s revealed words as a whole, without selective acceptance or rejection.
