The Bible is the only undeniable truth. Any book written by even a Godly person will still contain their own personal opinions that cannot help but be expressed in the material. It is our responsibility to continually search the Scriptures to verify the truth in what we are learning. We had a very good and pithy study today as we studied God's Word together. God Bless! http://beanscorner.org/blogs/blog2.php/it-s-nothing-personal#c521 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 09:58:40 +0000 Blaine Rackliff [Visitor] c520@http://beanscorner.org/blogs/ I think this is great Ira...and SO important! Just recently I have spoken with a friend who said he, and multiple other families are leaving their church because their Pastor is not interested in having a personal rel'ship with them. I can't imagine putting my trust and vulnerability in the hands of someone who doesn't show love, compassion, or interest in me! I compare the message in this blog to that of my youth ministry. The kids I serve deserve to be able to trust someone who they know without a doubt, loves and cares for them. Without that loving relationship, there is no way that they are gonna open up. I don't believe this is any different w/adults! I also agree with you that it is important to not always accept authors/teachers words as "Gospel truth." Great message...Keep it up! http://beanscorner.org/blogs/blog2.php/it-s-nothing-personal#c520
