using the Bible

Scripture is not to be used.  It is to be received.  - David Loar
_______________________________________________________
Quotation:
    It is Truth which we must look for in Holy Writ, not
cunning of words. All Scripture ought to be read in the spirit
in which it was written. We must rather seek for what is
profitable in Scripture, than for what ministereth to subtlety
in discourse.
    ... Thomas a Kempis (1380-1471), Of the Imitation of
        Christ, I.v. [1418]

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, may I never win an argument at the risk of losing a
soul.

Hey David. Thought you'd be interested in a new UCC blog network:

http://uccbloggers.blogspot.com/

Hopefully it'll be a good way for UCC bloggers to connect with each other.
