John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
John 10:26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
The practice on these threads of posting a verse or two from Scripture and representing it as complete and definitive diminishes God. No single verse, chapter, book or testament of Scripture, nor even all of it collectively, is The Word. Jesus is so very much more than Scripture and Scripture is but a reflection of Him. If everything He said and did was committed to books they would fill the entire world, yet some insist to argue over punctuation and translations of translations.
Citing chapter and verse like it is an incantation or a municipal code on a traffic citation will not get anyone into heaven, but Blessed are those who live the Beatitudes. If today anyone on these threads has not worked to feed the hungry, comfort the sick, clothe the naked, give hope to the hopeless or defend the unborn then their posting is done only for public consumption and not for the glory of God.
