1 | The Irony of the StudyBibleForum | 2 Tim 3:16 | Hank | 31773 | ||
Day by day, post upon post, it continues. "It" may be defined as statements, opinions, musings, theories, conjectures, hypotheses, speculations -- none of which is, has ever been, or ever can be, founded upon Scripture. Ironic it is that a StudyBibleForum should attract so many to so broad a spectrum of ideas about which God thought so little of that He did not speak of them in His word. --Hank | ||||||

"35 percent of born-again Christians do not read the Bible at all." Hank: Some may not believe that the churches are filled with those who are Biblically illiterate. Let the doubters read the following and decide for themselves. 'Theologian: Bible Illiteracy Sets Up Believers for Deception 'By Fred Jackson and Bill Fancher December 26, 2001 '(AgapePress) - A high-profile Bible teacher says the lack of biblical literacy in America is at epidemic levels. 'Ron Rhodes is president of Reasoning from the Scriptures Ministries (http://www.ronrhodes.org/). And when he talks about the lack of Bible reading among Americans, he is not talking about the population in general -- he is talking about people who call themselves born-again Christians. 'In an interview with Assist News Service, Rhodes quotes a recent poll which indicates that 35 percent of born-again Christians do not read the Bible at all. To put that staggering figure in context, he says imagine a church of 500 members. That means about 175 of them do not spend any time in God's Word. 'In addition, Rhodes indicates the news is not much better among those who say they read the Bible. He says of those, the vast majority only read it during the one hour they attend church each Sunday morning. 'Rhodes says such statistics make it more than obvious why many Christians are easy prey for spiritual deception.' (http://headlines.agapepress.org/archive/12/262001a.asp) |

3 | The Irony of the StudyBibleForum | 2 Tim 3:16 | JMHO | 31779 | ||
I know so many people, who simply are not book people in any manner, people of their hands etc. Basic people with simple childlike faith in God's Grace. They don't explore or question they just humbly believe. Boy, would I like to exchange places with them, now and for eternity. . |

4 | The Irony of the StudyBibleForum | 2 Tim 3:16 | EdB | 31782 | ||
JMHO Forgive me but that is a "cop out". People that refuse to read either haven't learned or are too lazy to do so. God doesn't give us a choice he said 2 Tim. 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. If you haven't read it you can't handle it all you know is what somebody else tells you. EdB |
