 Proof text or Context? More than once I have caught myself going into a Bible study
predisposed to a certain idea / slant / opinion. If there is a great
desire to support what I am already thinking, it becomes less of a
Bible study and more of a proof text fishing expedition. By the time
the “study” is complete there are a stack of scriptures which (not
surprisingly) dovetail nicely with what was already fomenting in my
brain. The Bible becomes a cajoled witness testifying to the
“rightness” of my view. Sloppy or bad Bible study can be an unwitting
tool in divisiveness. Write Comment (0 Comments) |

 What are we building Genesis 11 1
Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. 2 As men
moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there. 3
They said to each other, "Come, let's make bricks and bake them
thoroughly." They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. 4
Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that
reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves and
not be scattered over the face of the whole earth." Write Comment (1 Comments) |
