CDBJ: Speaking of Bible-carrying church members, there is a church in our town -- I know it well -- where you are most unlikely to see anyone toting a Bible around campus. Some years ago there were two families who regularly brought Bibles to the worship service. They were actually subjects of ridicule, if not out and out scorn. Neither family stayed long at that church; they moved on to a better climate. That church has steadily lost membership over the years; they are limping along still, struggling to pay their bills and keep the doors open. They don't seem to know or care why they are headed for extinction. The moral is, if you don't see Bibles going in, you are not likely to feel fed when you are coming out. --Hank | ||||||

It makes sense to me; those that aren't using the Bible in their church services are only practicing ritual with out reality and all that repetition would have to get old after awhile. My wife was in a church like that before God revealed the truth of Christ to her and the assurance of salvation. She says that when she looks back it blows her mind how she was caught up in all that meaningless ritual. She said that she use to have a constant fear of dying and not knowing if she would make it to heaven. Praise the Lord for the truth of His Word. CDBJ | ||||||
