God didn't make it so simple that all you had to do was read a verse or a group of verses to understand what he really had to say...

Where is tha in scripture?

2 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Now you won't find that command in any Catholic bible...And for good reason...

Wrong! You will find that in the expected place in the Douay Rheims Bible. It's difficult to trust someone to tell the truth in a discussion when they have no regard for accuracy in the little things, like whether or not a verse is in the "Catholic" Bible.

Why are you always so mean???

I should have said 'modern' Catholic versions...My err...

Douay-Rheims Bible
Carefully study to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

I suppose it's close enough to the original that we can accept it...
