Most were kind and encouraging, some were hurtful and dismissive, but then there were a few, a precious few, who were what I call "friends of intentionality". These ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 7, 2020
     | 2,119 views

    Paul's instruction that the Corinthians were to "greet one another with a holy kiss" provides a nice open door for discussing whether we are to take the Bible literally. This message looks at four considerations that we need to keep in mind to read the Bible correctly.

    - I have four questions for you as we begin. Let me hear an “Amen” if you agree with what I say: a. The Bible is the Word of God. b. We believe in the Bible. c. The Bible is literally true. d. When I came into church, I greeted everyone with a holy kiss. - Where were all the cries of “Amen” ...read more
