The more I read the word, the more I endeavor to not do that

Those who endeavor not to read the Word too much. will inevitably never believe what it says.


When I said “not do that”, I was referring to my statement before it: Reading between the lines.

My point was that I try to read what the bible actually says, not what I see between the lines, which I see as different from reading “in context.”

I see now why you bristled at what I said. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

Amazing how context can make all the difference at times.

I am reminded of the many episodes of, “Threes Company”. Their whole series was based upon misunderstandings as they all took things they heard out of context.
