In BIBLE we trust? - Misplaced allegiance?

[St. SteVen]

Seems too many make an idol of their personal interpretation of the Bible.
Claiming theirs is the only truth and that others are "of the devil" because their view differs.
What's wrong with this picture? Misplaced allegiance. Religious fiefdoms.
Building walls, instead of bridges.

- What is the purpose of the Bible?
- Should the Bible be used to cause division?
- Where is your allegiance ultimately?

[MatthewG]

On the quarter it says in God we trust.

The bible is a spiritual roadmap for all people to see where they are at in life, with the viewing of Gods chosen nation Israel (including material divorcement), and to grow spiritually in Christ, who fulfilled the old covenant.

If "In God We Trust", how do we know who God is?

Who still uses quarters?

Those two-edged swords can divide stuff pretty quickly.

What happens when the sheep find out their shepherds are only out for their own power and privileges and can't be trusted to feed them?

"A penny for your thoughts" is still a good investment.
You always get someone's two cents worth, thus doubling your money. - LOL

Rather assumptive, isn't it?
Points to the God of the founding fathers, I suppose.

How do you know the sun is in the sky?

 

[Philip James]

Slaves, be subject to your masters with all reverence, not only to those who are good and equitable but also to those who are perverse.

For whenever anyone bears the pain of unjust suffering because of consciousness of God, that is a grace.

But what credit is there if you are patient when beaten for doing wrong? But if you are patient when you suffer for doing what is good, this is a grace before God.

For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example that you should follow in his footsteps.

Merry Christmas!

Another bad supposition. There is only one true God, Jesus’ God.

Christendom is fraught with IDOLATRY. No wonder it is the 2C.

They then come out from amongst them . Lambs dont feed on mushroom theology , but on the WORD and words of GOD .

 

[Lambano]

Which is effectively the same as, "Every man did what was right in his own eyes", because we read the Bible with our own eyes.

 

[St. SteVen]

Lambs dont feed on mushroom theology...

Wow, "mushroom theology"? That's a curious term.
I can think of at least two directions that could go. - LOL

Right.
Sorry, I'm not sure what "the 2C" is. ???

2C or not 2C? - that is the question.
