Bible Note: Hi, Chuck... Welcome to the forum! ...and very well said! I was reading elsewhere in Scripture recently: Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets who lead my people astray; When they have something to bite with their teeth, They cry, "Peace," But against him who puts nothing in their mouths they declare holy war. Therefore it will be night for you--without vision, And darkness for you--without divination. The sun will go down on the prophets, And the day will become dark over them. The seers will be ashamed and the diviners will be embarrassed. Indeed, they will all cover their mouths because there is no answer from God. (Micah 3:5-7 NASB) Thank your pastor for us, too!
