****Some perhaps, but I’m not even sure of that. However, *many* is highly suspect.****

Do you deny that millions of Christians believed having never read Scripture or interpreted it for themselves?

****Has it not ever happened to you that you were reading something in the Bible and all of a sudden you see a verse in a new light and sit back and say, *Wow! I never saw that before* (or Never saw it like that before)? ****

Yes, it has. That we can read Scripture is a blessing we have that others before us didn’t. But, we must guard against thinking we are perfect in our understanding.

Scripture has been used by the Devil who knows it very well. That is why the Holy Spirit safeguards us by giving us an authority by which we can read it.

****The Bible is EASY to understand compared to the CCC.***

The TRUTH is easy to understand. Many have been led astray by charlatans who confuse people with their knowledge of Scripture and the ability to twist what it means to suit their agenda.
